15 Minutes : Make It : Cornucopia




The cornucopia, meaning "horn of plenty", is a popular symbol of the harvest of Thanksgiving.
This activity provides a fun way for your child to learn by identifying different foods and creating it into something they can be proud of. It can be tailored to any age.



Materials:

1 sheet brown construction paper
Masking tape
Magazines
Scissors

Roll the sheet of brown paper to create a horn shape. Secure the edges with tape.
Go through the magazines with your child to find appropriate items to add to the cornucopia. Explain that the cornucopia holds food from a harvest: fruits and vegetables that have been picked.
Assist your child in cutting out the magazine pictures or have him tear out the pictures. Let him tape the food into the cornucopia
