Five Things I’m Loving This Friday ~ Halloween

My children break up for half term today and maybe yours do too? Here are a few ideas for Halloween projects, to keep them busy during next week.

Some simple Shadow Makers from Minieco

A Shadow Theatre, from a cereal box and a sheet of tracing paper, to go with them.

Turn 12” strips of coloured paper into mini pumpkins.

Make ghosts from plastic milk bottles and fairy lights.

A sheet of finger puppets to print and cut out.

I hope you find something useful amongst those projects. Have a lovely weekend.

    The Tomboy broke up today, The Boy yesterday :) We seem to have filled our half term with visits to and from friends though! That plus their homework will keep them pretty busy! Love the shadow theatre idea though, making a mental note of that :)

    No - we have to go on until next Thursday. Then we have a week off.

    The milk bottle ghosts are really effective
