Just about every kid has taken their school glue and spread it out to see what it will look like when it is dried. This Halloween craft allows them to do just that. It also allows your kids to participate and use their imagination at the same time. You can also have ghosts of all shapes and sizes to make a great variation of Halloween decorations.
Materials Needed:
- White school glue
- Waxed paper
- Wiggle eyes
- Felt, buttons, pom-poms, etc (all optional)
Instructions:
- Place a piece of waxed paper on a flat surface.
- Squeeze glue from the bottle into the shape of a ghost.
- Place wiggle eyes into the glue.
- If you would like to decorate your ghost, use felt, buttons, pom-poms or whatever you like to add character. We made a simple bow tie from green felt and added mini pom-poms for buttons.
- Set aside in an out-of-reach area to dry overnight. Note: Expect for them to take all night – and possibly a few hours more – to dry completely.
- Once dry the ghosts will look like they blend into the waxed paper. Carefully peel them paper and use them as decorations around the house.
