Irresistible for 5-year-olds! A collection of recommended craft ideas for Halloween

A witch flying in the sky

[Kindergarten/Preschool] It moves so smoothly! October Halloween Flying Witch Painting and Craft

Here’s an idea for making a movable artwork called “The Flying Witch.” First, use crayons to draw a full moon and stars on the base sheet of drawing paper.

Next, make a witch and a ghost out of origami, and a witch’s house out of construction paper.

Since the witch has a few fiddly steps, it might be better for an adult to demonstrate while working.

Then make the witch’s broom out of construction paper, thread a string through the handle, and attach the witch to the broom.

Place it on the base, and tape both ends of the string to the back of the base to secure it.

Finally, glue the ghost and the witch’s house onto the base, and you’re done.

Slide the broom’s handle left and right to make the witch fly across the picture and have fun!

Halloween lantern

[100-Yen DIY] Easy Handmade Halloween Lantern Using a Plastic Bottle

Here’s an introduction to making Halloween lanterns from plastic bottles.

When cutting the bottle, lightly warm the utility knife to get a clean edge.

At that time, be sure to wipe off any soot thoroughly with a cloth dampened with water.

If you draw your own original design, you’ll end up with a one-of-a-kind lantern that’s really fun.

When you put in a tea light, the cute design will glow.

It should look beautiful if you turn on the light in a darkened room.

They’re also great as decorations to set out on Halloween.

Try making various lanterns by changing the size of the plastic bottles!

Halloween hanging decorations

Perfect for free play in childcare! Scissor practice Montessori activity! Halloween crafts for ages 4 and up

Let me introduce a recommended hanging decoration for a Halloween party! It’s simple enough for 4-year-olds, so try it in your classroom or at home.

You’ll need Halloween-colored construction paper, scissors, something to draw faces with, and string.

First, fold the paper in half.

Then draw shapes that are symmetrical along the fold—like pumpkins, ghosts, or hats.

Cut out the shapes with scissors and draw your favorite faces.

Finally, tape or glue them to the string, and you’re done.

If you prepare templates, the children can draw them too, so be sure to enjoy making them together!

Ghost Yo-Yo

[Halloween Crafts] Handmade Ghost Yo-Yo – DIY Yo-Yo

Let me introduce a Halloween yo-yo that kids can play with, made from newspaper, origami paper, and rubber bands.

First, crumple up some newspaper and wrap rubber bands around it.

Secure the rubber bands with tape so they don’t come off.

Connect the remaining rubber bands to make the yo-yo’s elastic string.

Apply glue to the origami paper and cover the balled-up newspaper so there are no gaps.

Draw eyes and a mouth with a pen, and you’re done! If that’s tricky, you can use stickers instead.

Try seeing how many times you can yo-yo in a row! It’s also great to include as a fun activity during Halloween events.

pumpkin garland

Easy Halloween Craft: How to Make a Handmade Pumpkin Garland | Craft Kit | Great for Elementary School Kids and Preschoolers | Elementary School Entrance Exam Projects | Arts and Crafts | Decorations | Halloween Garland DIY | Senior Recreation | Wall Decorations | Autumn Crafts

Here’s an idea for making a pumpkin garland using construction paper.

First, cut orange construction paper into strips of three different lengths.

Prepare two strips of each length.

For the green construction paper, prepare one short strip.

Sandwich the green strip between the longest orange strips, then layer the remaining orange strips from longest to shortest on both sides so they’re symmetrical.

Align and glue together on one end, then, starting with the outermost strips, glue the other ends together in order.

This completes one pumpkin.

Make several, punch a hole at the top of the green strips, thread a string through, and turn them into a garland.

Spiderweb made with origami

[Spiderweb] Easy and quick! Halloween craft with origami: spiderweb | Origami Halloween spiderweb

Here’s an idea for making a paper-cut spiderweb.

Fold an origami sheet into a triangle three times, then use a pencil to draw the spiderweb pattern.

After that, simply cut along the lines with scissors and you’re done.

As you draw, make sure the design stays connected so the paper doesn’t fall apart when you cut it.

You can use it as part of a wall decoration as is, add it as an accent to a craft, or make it into a garland by using construction paper or another sturdier paper—it would look really cute.

Spiderwebs are typically white, but try making them in Halloween colors like black, orange, or purple too.
