Halloween Crafts for Kids

Halloween is the perfect time to get creative with your kids

 

by Samantha Conner

Since I am a ‘crafty person’, it was only a matter of time before my girls joined in on the fun. My first grader learned to scrapbook at age 3. I remember her preschool teachers being so impressed with her ‘scissor skills’. Over the years, as my passion for creating has grown, the girls have always been right there with me. Whether it is being thrifty at Goodwill or making modpodge frames, my girls aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty!

In the midst of my ‘home décor- type’ crafting, I always like to do some crafts that are just for kids too. And Halloween is the perfect time to get creative with your kids.  For inspiration, we found this great book at the library, “Fun to Make Crafts for Halloween”. You would be surprised at the number of ‘crafty’ books you can find in the youth section. And better yet—they are free!

Dress up those Halloween treats for your child’s classmates, friends or Halloween party favors!  Make bag toppers for your favorite candies, and wrappers for candy bars and microwave popcorn packages.  Wrap the candy and let the kids decorate away!  It’s also fun to personalize your fancy Halloween treats with friends’ names.
