Water Bottle Pumpkin Jack-O-Lantern

This project works well with toddlers, too!

You need:
Small plastic bottle
Orange construction paper or scraps
Black paper scraps
Scissors (if desired)
Glue
Green permanent marker

1)  Tear the orange paper in small pieces and stuff in the bottle.

2)  Tear (or cut) the black paper for a Jack-O-Lantern face.  Glue.

3)  Use a permanent marker to color the cap green.

I was trying to dry out one of the bottles with a hairdryer when the plastic started to shrink up in the "stem" area!  I liked how it turned out -- and it reminded me of the book and DVD Spookley the Square Pumpkin!
