Friendly Ghosts

It is that time of the year again and I am so excited. I love the holidays (and I consider Halloween a major holiday). I have all sorts of holiday crafts planned for Liv and I can't wait to get to them. Unfortunatly the start of October also means the end of my maternity leave. I have really enjoyed the past three months but I am looking forward to establishing our permanent routine. I may not be able to post as often as I have been but I promise I will still update this blog at least once a week so be sure to keep checking back! Now onto our craft.....

SUPPLIES

Cotton Balls
Black Construction Paper
White Crayon
Paste

Directions

1. Using the white crayon draw a ghost onto the black construction paper (doesn't need to be fancy).



2. In a small snack cup mix your paste using about 3 tablespoons of flour and enough water until it becomes the consistency of glue.

3. Have your toddler dip cotton balls into the paste and start filling in the ghost you drew on the construction paper.




4. Add googly eyes!

Liv liked making this so much that we now have two ghosts in our house and I am almost out of cotton balls. Happy October!!
