Today we made pumpkin magnets from a kit that I bought at Joann's. 
The kids have been asking me to make them since they saw me put them away in the craft closet. They didn't quite understand that we had to wait until the day I had planned for it on 31 Days of October; I guess I could've been a little more flexible about that. :) I was a little bummed with the kit because I figured the foam stickies that you put on the foam pumpkins would be stickers. They weren't, so we had to get the dreaded glue out to stick them on. I'm not really a fan of glue right now...it ends up everywhere! Myla's hair, the carpet, the table, the walls, clothes...all victims of glue-smearing from the Glue Monster (aka Myla). But it was fun and the kids are loving that their little creations can join the unorganized mess that is our refrigerator door. They love moving the magnets and pictures and announcements around.
