Halloween crafts for kids
Create a fun and easy craft for Halloween. Use die cuts or a free template online to create this fun piece to decorate your home. Remember those cute paper chains we used to make for Christmas in the 80s? This is what inspired the center of the piece. All you need is:
1. Ghost and bat template. Find one on word
2. Foam or construction paper
3. Strips of purple, orange and black construction paper
4. Curling ribbon to hang your piece
What to do:
1. Hole punch the top and bottom of your desired piece.
2. Link and create the chains at the bottom of the first piece, then attach it to the second.
3. Decorate with ribbon, googly eyes, and fun festive pieces to create your desired look.
