Since we are in the middle of September and the nights are getting longer I thought it would be a great idea to teach my kids some more about nocturnal animals. We already enjoyed making a toilet paper owl together so I just know they will be fascinated with my range of easy hedgehog crafts.
You can make the prickly creature from a variety of different craft materials; why not let little kids decide on what they want to use to make their very own pet hedgehog!
Below you can find paper hedgehog crafts, clay hedgehogs, yarn hedgehogs, those made with toilet paper rolls and lots more!! I believe using things found in nature make the best crafts!
It’s Autumn so go walking and pick your own leaves and pine cones and then transform them into a prickly hedgehog!
Let little children select their own color scheme and decorate their hedgehogs as they wish! After all it’s all about encouraging them to be creative!
