Are you looking for a super simple Halloween craft to make with your children this year and don’t have a lot of prep time? This Halloween ghost craft I am sharing today is the perfect solution! Using only a few supplies, you’ll have arts and crafts time ready in no time and kids will have a blast creating this Halloween ghost craft.
If you are a regular reader here you know how much I love creating interactive paper plate crafts. I love how these types of crafts provide an opportunity for kids to use their creativity and then afterwards they get to enjoy play time.
Supplies you will need:
- Ghost Pencil Topper Craft Kit
- Black Square Paper Dinner Plate, 18 Ct.
- Star Sticker Sheet
The ghost pencil toppers come in a set of of individually wrapped kits for kids to create and design on their own. They can make a boy ghost with a cute bow tie or a girl ghost with a pretty bow on her head.
How to do Halloween ghost craft
1. Assemble your Ghost Pencil topper
Open up your Ghost Pencil Craft Kit and lay out the pieces included in the kit. Use the instructions and photos included in the Ghost Pencil Craft Kit as a guide to adhere the ghost pieces to the end of your pencil. There are a few different variations for decorating the ghost so kids will enjoy using their creativity to design the ghost how they want.
2. Cut an opening along the bottom of the paper plate
Turn your black square paper plate upside down. Poke a hole in the bottom corner of the paper plate with your scissors and cut along the bottom line of the paper plate, creating an opening along the bottom of the paper plate.
3. Decorate plate with star stickers
Decorate the front of your black paper plate with colourful star stickers, making it look like a spooky Halloween night sky.
When kids are finished making their Halloween ghost craft they place the pencil inside the slit at the bottom of the black paper plate. Then they watch as their cute little ghost moves around the black starry night when they move their pencil around.
