The third rotation of our Halloween classroom party is station #3: a craft. There are tons of fun Halloween crafts that children can make at school. Feel free to do one (or both) of our crafts or to do another one that you like instead. We picked two of our favorites. The first is a roll of toilet paper disguised as a pumpkin and the second is a sucker wrapped ghost–always a classic. You’ll need one or two people to run this station, depending on how young the children are. Younger children might need more helping hands to finish these crafts.
This classroom party could also work at home or as part of another Halloween party.
Craft: Toilet Paper Pumpkins
Supplies: a roll of toilet paper per child, an orange piece of tissue paper per child, green tissue paper pieces, raffia, black pumpkin face cut out of black paper or foam per child (optional)
Have each child roll up their toilet paper in a sheet of orange tissue paper. Then have them tuck the ends of the tissue paper into the cylinder inside the toilet paper roll. A part of a piece of green tissue paper can be twisted and tucked into the top along with some raffia. As an optional addition, you could cut out jack-o-lantern faces ahead of time or have the children cut out their own from black paper or sticky foam. Have them glue or tape the faces onto their pumpkins.
Craft: Ghost Pops
Supplies: a lollipop or sucker per child, a 6 x 6 piece of white fabric cut per child, black sharpie, a piece of black, purple or orange ribbon per child
Using pinking shears, cut out as many 6 x 6 pieces of fabric as you’ll need so that each child can have one. We used an old white sheet for the fabric. Have each child put a piece of the white fabric over a lollipop. Help them tie a piece of ribbon around the stick to keep the fabric on. With a sharpie marker, have them draw a spooky face onto their ghost. Boo!
Try using some interesting pumpkins at different heights for your table centerpiece.

Love the toilet paper pumpkin craft ~ quick, easy, and super cute! The tootsie pop ghost is a classic! We made these when my daughter was in elementary school ~ I think every year as a matter of fact! Thanks for sharing, Brittany!
I think these are cute for girl scouts to do since they never have any money. The ghost pops can be used with a piece of paper towel too I have made them with this.Just as cute and easy for the girls to do.
These are just about the cutest things I’ve ever seen. Ever.
