Crafts, Games, Ideas and More!

By Natalie Sanchez - Macaroni Kid Upland-Claremont-La Verne July 12, 2022

Fall naturally brings vibrant colors and plenty of activity, from the changing leaves and football games to the crisp air and kids back in school. With all this inspiration around us, it’s the perfect time to enjoy some fall crafts and activities with the kids. Remember, these activities don’t have to be complicated or time-consuming. Sometimes, the simplest moments of creating together are what make the best lifelong memories.


Upland Recreation and Community Services is excited to continue our partnership with The Sawdust Factory to provide "Take & Make" Halloween Craft Kits for kids of all ages!  Yes, adults are included, too! Each craft kit, created exclusively for Upland Recreation and Community Services participants, contains a Halloween wood cut-out, paint, and paintbrush.  All that's needed is your creativity and perhaps some glue and Sharpie marker to provide a personal touch from the comfort of your home. Kits are just $11.00. Register for your kit here.  - Registration Ends October 13
