Four years ago, when I had a three year old and one year old, I made the following canvas with my little dragons. I still hang it up every year. I decided I needed some Halloween foot prints from my two year old, so we had a Toddler Halloween Paint Party with my one year old nephew. (I think I need to glue the paper down again!) Everything you need is listed here!

For the first piece, you need:
Paint (My mom and I watched that the kids did not put paint in their mouth, even though we were using nontoxic paint, but you can make your own edible paint if that makes you feel more comfortable.)
For the purple- I mixed purple + white. And, for the green I mixed green and white.
Paintbrushes (I linked my favorite brushes for toddlers. But they do have paintbrushes that actually hold paint which may also work well for toddlers.)
Permanent Marker
Directions:
The boys painted the wood purple, and then we let it dry. (While it dried we worked on our sticker wreath, directions below.) After it dried, I used a paintbrush to brush the green on the palm of their hand, and orange on their fingers. I placed their hands flat on the wood. Then I just glued on googly eyes and used a permanent black marker for the rest of the details. You could really get creative here with a 3 eyed monster or add some poms poms or glitter!
For the next piece, I used:
1 piece of watercolor paper
Below you will see the Halloween wreath we made while the purple paint was drying. It's so simple but so satisfying for toddlers. My 2 year old loves stickers (especially Halloween stickers right now,) and they are great fine motor practice. I just cut out the middle of a black paper plate (which was a lot harder to get looking half way decent than I thought,) and then my son applied stickers where he wanted. You may notice all the ghosts are together as well as the skeletons because he decided they were friends. So cute!
Bonus: 2 year old freestyle.
I hope one of these ideas inspires your next Toddler Art Session!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN

This watch is being touted as the "Outdoors" which is meant to signal that it's fit for all outside link activity, not just diving. link It comes on a stainless steel bracelet with a combination of brushed and polished surfaces similar to prior link iterations of the Aquaracer – including TAG's modern clasp design with micro-adjustment capability.
This link sophisticated mechanism, equipped with link a minute repeater, hasn't just been restored, it's been remarkably upgraded with a perpetual calendar, which governs the day, date, link month, Moon phased and leap year displays.

For those link gearing up for the upcoming Monaco Grand Prix F1 race, this TAG Heuer Monaco carries the link spirit of the original Monaco link that Steve McQueen wore in '71. On the opposite end of the style spectrum, this rose gold Piaget Antiplano maintains formal style free of any stuffiness with that quirky subdial at the 11 o'clock position.
The Lange 1 was launched on October 24, 1994 – 30 years ago to the day. For the 30th anniversary of the brand's decidedly asymmetrical link design, A. Lange link & Söhne link have just unveiled a quartet of limited edition models. Presented in two colorways – black onyx with a platinum case or a blue dial with a pink gold case – each version is available in either the standard Lange 1 sizing or the slightly smaller footprint of the Little Lange 1.
