Candy corn garland craft idea for kids (with free template)
Easy Candy Corn Halloween craft idea
Out of many things that remind us of the fall season and Halloween, candy corns are one.
The colors used to make candy corns are fall colors. And those vibrant colors call for ideas to make a variety of candy corn crafts.
Here we have come up with a candy corn craft idea for kids. It’s a candy corn garland, but with a twist. We will stick some emojis to each of the candy corns to make them look lively and to add a fun element.
The emojis we present in this project are – surprise, grimace, laughter, love, smile, and wink. It will give kids a chance to learn and identify different emotions and familiarise them with faces showing different emotions.
Before moving on to the craft, we would appreciate it very much if you will check out our Youtube channel and subscribe to it. We upload new easy craft tutorials every week there that are different from what we publish on the blog. Thank you!
