Favourite Halloween Activities/Crafts

[apples and bananas]

I have young ones as well.

We have done a black hand print on a paper plate, turned it upside down and make it into a cat. The thumb is the tail, fingers are the legs. The put string on it so they could hang it on the wall.

We also glued scrunched up orange and green tissue paper on a pumpkin template. The little ones did this really well. .

Last week we painted small pumpkins and I hot glued googly eyes on them.

We also had ghost shaped sandwiches today and I made a skeleton out of veggies and they picked and chose what they wanted.

I hope you found some great stuff on pinterest.

Now.... onto the Christmas planning.

Another good one for little kids is dipping one of their feet in white paint.
Then have them press the foot on a black piece of construction paper
Turn it upside down and you have a ghost
Then (when dry) take a permanent marker and you draw on the mouth and eyes of the ghost. Looks great when done. was a hit with the parents. http://pinterest.com/pin/259379259758350181/

One I read for little ones is to take a black piece of construction paper and put it in the bottom of a plastic tray....then put a few drops of white paint and a ping pong ball or a marble, close the lid and have the toddler shake and move the marble.
YOu end up with a spider web drawing. Let it dry and then glue on a plastic spider or a paper spider and voila - spider web
