Halloween Crafts

Halloween crafts are a great way to keep the children interested and excited at your party.
If you're having a birthday party in the month of October or a Halloween party for a child, this is a great craft idea, it can even be used as a game.
It's called: Halloween Lollipop Creations

What you will need

Lollipops
Scissors
tape or glue sticks
colored crepe paper
colored construction paper
yarn
ribbon
pipe cleaners
sequins, buttons or beads

Have the children sitting around the table and the supplies in the center. Give each child a lollipop and explain to them that they are going to create a Halloween character of there choice.
This can be anything from a witch, ghost or goblin, its up to the child to choose.
Set a time limit and categories (scariest,funniest,prettiest) from which their creations will be judged.
It is also a good idea to make up a few of your own to show the children before they start creating.
When time is up have them place the lollipop in the category they feel most suits their creation.
You as the parent will be the judge.
Prizes can be awarded for the winners in each category.
