Halloween ghost

[Kindergarten/Preschool] Full of individuality with all kinds of ghosts! Ghost-themed drawings and crafts

Speaking of autumn, kids just love Halloween, don’t they? How about a ghost craft that 1-year-olds can enjoy making? Prepare the parts like the ghost’s eyes, mouth, and hands in advance, and put double-sided tape on the back.

First, attach a sponge to the end of a chopstick and secure it with a rubber band.

Dip the sponge in white paint and use it to draw a big ghost on black construction paper.

Next, peel the backing off the tape on the parts and let the children stick them on.

Let them freely enjoy both drawing the ghost and placing the parts! You’ll end up with very unique and adorable ghosts.

Halloween ghost decoration

[Kindergarten/Daycare] October Halloween Ghost Decorations

This is a perfect craft for Halloween wall decorations or hanging ornaments! First, stick the eyes and tongue of a ghost, along with a hat folded from origami, onto a paper cup.

Next, attach yarn to Halloween motifs made from construction paper and connect and secure them to the paper cup.

The origami hat might be a bit complicated for three-year-olds, so teachers can prepare them in advance.

You can also have fun customizing the motifs—pumpkins, ghosts, witches, and more.

Through this activity, why not make Halloween even more exciting together with the children?

Halloween is becoming a big event in Japan, too.

It’s a familiar occasion for children.

Let’s try making costumes perfect for Halloween! If a 2-year-old wants to make a simple costume, using plastic bags is recommended.

Use an orange bag to be a jack-o’-lantern, a white one to be a ghost, and a black one to be a witch.

Draw or stick on your favorite patterns, and you’ll have an easy Halloween costume ready in no time! Make sure an adult handles cutting the holes for the neck and arms.

Halloween hat

[Halloween Craft] How to Make a Pumpkin Hat out of Construction Paper — Perfect for Halloween Projects! [Daycare/Kindergarten]

Here’s an idea for a pumpkin hat kids can wear for costumes.

Prepare two sheets of orange construction paper and place them vertically.

Draw a horizontal line 15 cm down from the top.

Below that line, draw vertical lines spaced evenly.

Tape the two sheets together, but be careful not to tape over the area with the vertical lines.

Apply double-sided tape along the very bottom edge of the paper, then cut along the vertical lines to create narrow strips.

Attach each strip, one by one, to the back side of the upper part of the paper, then crease between each strip.

Roll the whole thing into a cylinder and attach a rubber band so the size can be adjusted.

Finally, add a pumpkin face and a hat made from black construction paper, and you’re done! Be sure to use paper sized to fit the child’s head.

Pumpkin made with finger painting

[Let’s make it with kids] Halloween Pumpkin Finger Painting 🎃 #PreschoolCrafts #ChildcareWorker #ChildcareIdeas #FutureChildcareWorkers #ChildcareLife #Crafts #WithKids #WallDisplayArt #ConstructionPaper #Paint

Here’s a pumpkin craft made with finger painting.

First, prepare a clear zip-top bag and a sheet of construction paper cut to fit the size of the bag.

Next, dab paints in pumpkin-like colors—yellow, orange, and brown—onto the paper, then place the paper inside the bag and seal it.

Let the children use their fingers over the bag to freely spread the paint and enjoy the sensation of mixing colors.

Not only can they experience the feel of the paint and the changes in color, but it’s also great for developing fine motor skills.

Finally, remove the paper from the bag, have the teacher cut it into a pumpkin shape, and draw a face to finish.

Displaying them around the room will instantly boost everyone’s excitement for Halloween.
