3 Ideas for a Kid's Halloween Party

Greet your guests with this spooky Tissue Ghost Wreath. It costs pennies to make, and it's super simple. This wreath is so easy to make that your kids can help you put it together and proudly show it off to their friends. All you need to do is draw faces on tissues and wrap them around cotton balls to make simple ghosts. Kids will have fun drawing funny faces on some ghosts and scary faces on others. This project can even be a group craft if you allow all the guests to decorate a few ghosts each. Glue all the tissues to a wreath form for a gathering of ghosts!

This Halloween Treats Jar is a clever way to set out handfuls of Halloween goodies. Make it this year for your kid's Halloween party, and you'll be able to use it for years to come. Paint a clay pot with a Frankenstein face, or choose any spooky monster to decorate your jar. If you do stick with Frankenstein, you can glue two painted wooden knobs to each side of his face for bolts. Paint a clay saucer that comes with the pot, glue on a painted knob for a handle, and label the jar "Treats." You won't be able to keep the kids out of this candy containter.

Make sure your kid's Halloween party is full of celebration with these Halloween Noise Makers. This clever craft reminds us of historical celebrations of All Hallow's Eve, when people made noise and dressed up in frightening costumes to scare off the evil spirits of the walking dead. Your kids won't understand the history behind this tradition, but they'll sure love all the noise these crafts make! Fill painted juice cans with nuts and bolts to make a real ruckus.
