Dancing
skeletons, witches' kits, egg carton spiders...they're all in this
ghoulishly fun book for kids. Parents and teachers looking for
great ideas for children's crafts will enjoy
Halloween Activities too!
Shown on the cover are "sponge-printed ghosts"--just
one of the many activities that are wonderfully explained and
illustrated in this oversized book. There are moon and star
cookies and monster mouth cupcakes to bake and decorate; a clever
potato-print craft for making pumpkins; and even directions for
carving a real pumpkin.
One of the most artistic activities in the
book shows kids how to create a "spooky sky" as a
beautiful background for their Halloween scene. Instructions for
Halloween party invitations and even creative Halloween costumes
kids (and their parents) can make at home are easy to
follow.
In the middle of the book, there is a pull-out page of stickers
as an added bonus.
This book is imaginative and its illustrations help inspire
kids to actually do the activities.
Written by Fiona Watt. This paperback is approximately $9 US.
