Create a fun Halloween decoration

Materials: 

  1. 1 sheet of green construction paper
  2.  1 sheet of brown construction paper
  3. 1 sheet of black construction paper
  4. Scissors 
  5. A black marker 
  6. Glue
  7. Pencil (optional)  

INSTRUCTIONS:

Step 1: Trace your hand on the green paper with a pencil or your marker. 

Step 2: Cut out what you traced. 

Step 3: Take your black construction paper and draw two lines about a thumbs width apart, facing each other. Then, draw a triangle that meets both lines above it. Cut it out and you’ve got your witch’s hat.

Step 4: Next you’re going to take your brown construction paper and cut out little rectangular strips. Split the mini strips into two groups. (one for hair and one for your witch’s broom)

Step 5: Next, set the papers you just cut out and get your paper hand. Turn it upside down and draw a face on your witch.

Step 6: Take the hand you cut out and glue half of the brown strips of paper you cut out to the top of the hand as your witch’s hair. 

Step 7: Glue the hat you cut out on top of your witch’s head and hair.

Step8: Cut out a black strip as your witch’s broomstick. Cut out a much smaller green strip to adorn your witch’s hat. Glue it on the hat! You can cut off any excess. 

Step 9: Glue the brown papers that you saved and glue them at the bottom of the black strip. (this is your witch’s broom) 

Step 10: Glue the broom to one of the fingers on your green paper hand. Now your witch is holding the broom.

You can decorate your witch a bit more by adding things you cut out or draw on but otherwise, you’re done!
