Fall Fever : Read Halloween Themed Books by Flashlight

This may just become part of our nightly routine.  Big hit with the Jayna girl.

The Jack-O-Light’s filter was made using my Silhouette machine.  First I measured the diameter of the top of the flashlight, then made a circle that same size.  I filled it using build a jack-o-lantern : eyes, noses, and mouths and then cut it out of black construction paper.  It fit the flashlight snugly, no adhesive needed!
