Paper Ghost Garland
Passing some time yesterday, we made a really simple Halloween craft. We used some butcher paper, but freezer paper would be great also. Decide how long you want your garland, then accordion fold. Draw your ghost on the top. We have a template if you like.
Cut your ghost out making sure to not cut around the hands.
Draw faces on each ghost
It wasn’t too long before someone decided the faces should be pink!
If I can find some long orange paper we will be making pumpkins! I think it would be funny to see all of the different faces she could come up with!
Oh, that is such a great idea! My daughter and I might have to do this this weekend. We just happen to have a whole bunch of butcher paper for some reason.

Neat idea! That sounds pretty easy to do. I think I will try that with my kiddos!

Excellent! Thank you so much for another great holiday activity I can do with my kids. We went boo-ing with your nifty cat mask pumpkins on Monday. The kids’ excitement was palpable.

Thanks for the idea! I did this today with my 2 year old and 5 year old. My 5 year old daughter made clothes for her ghosts!

We made these with several kids at church and they loved it. One boy made all of his ghosts different super heroes. It was very cute!
