My squirrel crown is a great Autumnal themed craft for kids who want to make a woodland animal headband.
Squirrel Headband Craft/Squirrel Crown
Fall is the perfect time to get kids to fall in love with crafting as cooler days send little ones indoors more. I hate excess screen time so I encourage coloring and crafting!
I love animal themed crafts for Fall especially my fun squirrel crafts! My squirrel wreath is hugely popular come October and you can see why below!
Enough about that and more about crowns!! All little kids love to dress up whether it be in a cat mask or witches hat!
My Easter holy week crown is a huge hit and I know kids from aged 3 right up to 9 will love making my squirrel headband!
The best news is that it’s super quick and can be made in the classroom or at home using my free template and step by step instructions!
