Halloween Craft: Eyes in the Bushes

This is a quick family craft that can be done Halloween night or really any time leading up to it.  You simply take toilet paper rolls (something we all have), cut eyes in them, place a glow stick in them, and then when it gets dark place them in your bushes and on your lawn and it looks like this:

You can get the glow sticks at your dollar store, so this is a budget friendly idea, too!  Thanks for the super creepy, super fun idea Thrifty Crafty Girl!

Halloween Craft: Countdown to Halloween!

For weeks now, my five year old has been asking if it is Halloween Day yet.  She is just so excited!  So, every day I have to pull out the calendar and count the days until Halloween with her.  She is going to love this countdown printable.  Tonight, I am going to let her help make it and then she can put it in her room.  I love that there are simple craft/activity suggestions that go with each day.

The best part about this craft is how simple it is.  It only requires 4 things!

Here is what you will need to make this countdown:

-2 sheets of white paper or cardstock

-color printer

-glue

-craft knife

Here is the link to the printable and directions -> Disney Halloween Countdown Printable and Tutorial
