Use a toilet paper roll and some crepe paper to make the cutest Halloween kids craft ever. You'll love finding out what's inside this mummy pinata!One of my favorite things about Halloween is using recycled materials for decorations and holiday decor. I’m Vanessa Brady from Tried & True and I’m here to show you how to take something you throw away almost every day and turn it into a super fun DIY Halloween piñata! This is such a fun Halloween kids craft idea. Let’s get started!

Halloween Kids Craft: Mummy Pinata

What you will need:

  • toilet paper tube
  • googly eyes
  • white crepe paper streamer
  • double-sided tape
  • scrapbook paper
  • baker’s twine
  • small toys and candy

Step 1. Apply a strip of double-sided tape to the edge of tube and use to secure a piece of the streamer in place.

Gather a few small toys and candy pieces to fit in the mini pinata. Don’t pack it too tightly or the prizes won’t fall out easily when the string is pulled.

Cover the other end of the tube just like you did before except include a small tag before securing in place. This is what the kids will pull to release their prizes.

      Hi Jessica! Form a loop with string and a tag. Then lay one part of that loop over the end of the tube in the middle. Tape the crepe paper over it – when you pull the string it will rip the crepe paper! 😀

    Love this simple yet clever idea! Will be a great surprise for my father and his fellow seniors. A change of colors and it can be used for Christmas and Easter too.

      Hi Katie! I need to do a Santa Claus one! Or if you want it more non-secular – a snowman! 😀
