With Halloween almost here, I thought it would be fun for the kids to create their own Halloween decoration. With a few supplies, we were able to create our very own mummies. They were fun to create and my kids loved that they have pose-able arms and legs!
Materials:
Styrofoam cones (small)
Styrofoam balls (small)
Toothpicks
White pipe cleaners
Cheesecloth
Googley eyes
You will need 3 toothpicks to attach the head (ball) to body (cone). Fold 2 pipe cleaners in half to make the arms. Leave 2 pipe cleaners the standard length for the legs.
Put the three toothpicks in the top of the body and stick the head on top.
Push in the pipe cleaner legs and arms.
Cut your cheesecloth into long 1/2" strips. The cheesecloth will attach to the styrofoam and pipe cleaners without any adhesives. Keep wrapping cheesecloth around until the legs, arms, body and head are covered.
Glue on some googly eyes. Now you have your very own Halloween mummy!
Thanks for reading!
