Need a cute Halloween decoration for your home or classroom? This project uses a brown paper bag and there are patterns included for the wings, feet, eyes and beak. Patterns have multiple repeats for classroom copies. Find this project, “Paper Bag Owl,” in the Halloween Projects Gallery in the sidebar.
Look at those eyes, if that’s not fear I don’t know what it is. And I thought cats weren’t afraid of falling—they always land on their feet? The kids love doing this project, it must have to do with “scary.”
For the supply list and directions look at “Falling Black Cat” in the Halloween Projects Gallery in the sidebar.
Halloween wouldn’t be the same without sighting a witch or two. Hang these around the classroom or house and you’ll be witched. A variety of jewel colored (napkin or tissue paper) skirts would be appealing. A paper plate, napkin, and a skewer or twig are the main supplies needed for this project. The kids love these. For a supply list, pattern and directions for “Flying Witch” go to the Halloween Projects Gallery in the sidebar.
Not terribly scary, but a lot of fun to make. The second grade class used glue dots to hold the loop strips together.
For a list of supplies, patterns and directions for this project, go to “Paper Chain Jack-O-Lantern” in the 2nd Grade Projects Gallery in the sidebar.
Mr. and Mrs. are 6 inches tall and baby is 4 inches tall. Cute as a table decoration or write names on the cones to use as place cards. The patterns and directions for this “Cone Pumpkin Family” can be found in the Halloween Projects Gallery in the sidebar.
Happy Halloween!!!
It’s time to decorate for Halloween, but what to do with all those pumpkins! This is our plan for this year—we’ll stack them—a “Pumpkin Totem Pole.” Just a few pieces of construction paper, colored chalk, hairspray and crayons are all we need. The hairspray is to set the chalk. For all the directions for this kid’s project, “Pumpkin Totem Pole,” look in the 2nd Grade Projects Gallery in the sidebar.
We did a draw-along lesson while drawing the scarecrows, then each student finished their fall picture with pumpkins, crows or whatever they chose. We used watercolor pencils in this project. The complete list of supplies and the directions for making this “Scarecrow Watch” project are in the 5th Grade Projects Gallery in the sidebar.
Get ready for Halloween by making a bunch of “Hanging Spiders.” They aren’t terribly scary looking unless, of course, you’re scared of spiders. There’s not much to making these, especially if you use glue dots. And if you haven’t been using them, now’s the time to start because you’ll find lots of uses for them. The directions for making “Hanging Spiders,” can be found in the Halloween Projects Gallery in the sidebar.
