Construction Paper Crafts- How To Make Fall Pencil Toppers With Your Child
Supplies for your Construction Paper DIY Pencil Toppers:

Directions for how to make your Construction Paper Pencil Toppers:
Start by gathering your supplies and head to the table. Next, let your child decide what type of diy pencil toppers they would like to make. Anything works! We chose Fall themed pencil toppers since apples are in season and Halloween is on its way. After your child decides what they’d like, sketch out the object and let him or her cut it out if they have learned cutting skills (if not, just cut it out for him/her!).
Once you have cut out the objects (you will need a front and a back), place glue on the back sides of your 2 cut-outs and place on either side of the pencil. Gentle press your cut out objects together and lay flat to dry. These are fall pencil toppers make fun accessories for your child’s pencil! When they are writing or drawing, the Pencil Topper is just a fun little object to see! You can make new ones for each season! Add a cake for their birthday month or make some different ones up for Halloween pencil toppers. The possibilities are endless!
