In today’s world, we’re becoming more and more aware of different world cultures, and are even rediscovering our own! Since we’ve been home for a while, we’ve been looking up more information on Native American culture, especially the teepees and headgear.
When we were young, the biggest identifying feature of Native Americans in our mind was the fascinating headdress with feathers on them. There was something so regal about wearing it, and we loved making our own headgear with makeshift feathers!
Today, we’re going back to those days and making ourselves a bright and colorful Native American Headband, which is the perfect craft for the season, considering Thanksgiving is coming up!

No festival or celebration is complete without an elaborate spread of delectable food, right? At the mention of Thanksgiving, apart from the famous turkey roast, images of pies, desserts, and flavourful sauces fill your mind taking you on a sensorial food tour. Talking of pies, did you know pumpkin pies are an integral part of the feast? What a wonderful to make this nutritious vegetable appealing to kids!
Now, interestingly, pumpkins are also associated with Halloween. The famous Jack-o-lantern is an oft-repeated story told to kids to teach them right from wrong. So, depending upon the kind of parent you are, you could spook them into eating the pumpkin or encourage a genuine liking for it. I, personally, would go with the latter option. And, if there’s a cute pumpkin Thanksgiving craft to boot, then who knows, I’d have created a pumpkin lover for life!
