I don't know about you, but it's not very often I can find ANY activity that holds my two year olds attention for more than a couple of minutes. These easy Halloween activities are quick and only a little preparation, they are great for pulling out when you need a quiet minute!
What You'll Need:
- Construction paper in halloweeny colours
- scissors and glue stick
- **optional: stickers, glitter, markers/crayons
Handprint Ghosts:
- pre-cut construction paper into small circles, smiles, pumpkins, triangles (anything really) for eyes, jackolanterns, ect
- Trace childs hand on white construction paper - cut out
- Help child glue hand (fingers down) onto paper for the ghosty - glue on eyes, mouths, or anything else to complete the scene - glow in the dark star stickers might be a nice touch!
Easy-Peasy Jack-o-Lanterns
- Pre-cut orange construction paper into pumpkin shapes, green paper into handles/leaves, and black paper into an assortment of shapes to decorate your pumpkin (triangles, smiles, circles, squares, swirls, anything!)
- help child glue shapes onto pumpkins to create their very own Jack-o-lantern
- ** this one is great for a more independant toddler craft as long as they are good with a glue stick**
