Pine Cone Painted Fall Trees

Fun Fall Tree Craft for Kids

Have the kids collect a bunch of small pinecones around the yard and bring them inside for a fall craft! It's a simple idea that the kids will love because it involves sensory! Make sure to check out all our other pinecone crafts too.

If you want them to roll the pinecones around without touching them, grab a cardboard box and put the paper inside for less mess.

• Squirt paint onto a paper plate and lay the pinecones in the paint.
