Ghost Crafts for Kids

Have you ever thought about having a theme for Halloween? You know what I mean – one “guiding principle” that determines your Halloween crafts and decorations for the year.

You could even use the theme to determine your costumes! Having a Halloween theme can help everyone easily remember the experience you’ve had each year for the holiday.

Plus the selection process? What a treat. I mean my four brothers and I would have hours of fun arguing about whose theme should be selected.

But the thing is – and maybe you didn’t know this but I think you do – Halloween happens each year.

So there are lots of chances to try a little bit of everything. I recommend starting with a simple theme like ghosts, then switch it up next year and use black cats, mummies, or skeletons.

Ghosts are a good place to start because they have a lot of flexibility. The great thing about them is that they can be as cute or scary as you like, so you can easily make your apparitions age appropriate.

With this idea in mind, I’ve compiled a list of ghost crafts you can have fun creating with your kids.

Just slap a little smile or bow tie on that specter and your kids won’t be afraid. Take a peek at the not-so-scary projects on my list below, then let me know what you think in the comments.
