Inflating paper cup ghost

[Production] Halloween Craft – Paper Cup Ghost
Inflating paper cup ghost

Here’s a cute ghost craft you can make using a paper cup.

First, make a hole in the paper cup for a straw.

Use tape to firmly attach a plastic bag to the straw so that no air can escape—this is a very important step! Draw your preferred ghost eyes and mouth on construction paper.

Cut them out and stick them on the cup, then thread the “straw ghost” through the hole you made at the beginning, and you’re done.

When you blow gently, the straw ghost pops out of the cup.

It’s a simple craft, so give it a try! It might also be fun to use an umbrella bag to make a long ghost.
