Paint the castle. Add doors and windows from cut paper. Glue the beanstalk
and castle together. Glue cotton around the bottom of the castle to look
like clouds. Draw Jack on paper and staple him to a long piece of yarn
about 2x the length of the beanstalk. Tie the other end to a craft stick.

J - jack-in-the-box

A very simple jack-in-the-box can be made
from construction paper with a square (about 4 inches), a triangle (just a
little smaller), two rectangles (about 3/4 by 3 inches), a circle (about 3
inch diameter) and a small paper spring (3/4 in. by 4 in. strip, accordion
folded). The square is the box. The triangle is the body (attach to the
top of the square) and the circle (the head) is attached to the top of the
triangle with the paper spring . The spring makes the head bobble just a
bit as if he had just popped out of the box. The rectangles are attached
to the triangle body for arms. The children can draw the face and decorate
the rest as they desire. The whole thing can be glued on another piece of
paper if you desire. This might make assembly a
little easier for the children.

You can either paint glue on paper and then
sprinkle with jello powder for a scratch and sniff picture, or you can mix
jello powder with a little water to make scented water colors.
