Kids Crafts: Halloween Ghost (Great for School Parties)

Here is a simple idea that your kids can get involved in. As parents, we are usually asked to provide candy for school Halloween parties for our kids. Rather than just buying a bag of candy, it is really easy to make your child's contribution extra special.

All you need are the following:
1. A bag of Dum-Dums (lollipops with a round top)
2. A box of Kleenex
3. Either pipe cleaners, Halloween ribbon, raffia, or craft string (This is where you have the chance to be really creative.)

What you'll do is drape each lollipop with a Kleenex, tie the Kleenex on with the material of your choice, and draw eyes and a mouth.



I did this one using a simple white craft string. However, a thin Halloween ribbon would have been great! And this could have been embellished with beads strung onto the ends of the ribbon. The possibilities are endless. And, like always, you can make this as simple or as elaborate as you like.

I hope you and your children enjoy this project. If you are looking for additional craft ideas, Little Kids Halloween Crafts has some great ideas for childrens crafts for this month. Have a Happy Halloween!!!
