quick to make little halloween items - ideas?

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 
I need to make some halloween stuff for a bunch of kids (20ish).
Any ideas for something quick to make a bunch of? They still need to be cute! I dont want to do goodie bags for sure.

If they're readers, then maybe counted cross-stitch pumpkin bookmarks.

Capes are quick and easy, but take a lot of fabric. Maybe you could find a good deal on some spiderweb fabric or something. Felt and fleece are nice because you don't have to worry about doing anything to the edges.

The kiddos are mostly toddlers/preschoolers if that helps any!

Felt ghosts or pumpkins? Ive made them for my kids and they are really quick to come together.

Felt masks? Kitty, zebra, etc... with the little strings that tie in the back? Or fabric pencil rolls that tie around in a circle or velcro shut.

Broomstick pencils.

Take a strip of brown paper, about 4 inches long and an inch high. Cut a fringe along the log edge of the paper. Run glue along the length of the paper and roll it round the eraser end of a pencil. This make the bristles of the broomstick.

Draw a witch onto card and cut it out (or if like me you don't feel you can draw one find some clipart ) Sticky tape the witch onto the broomstick.

IME they don't last long, but you do still have a usable pencil.
