Partytime!!- Halloween

It is time to start thinking of Halloween ideas for your kiddos Halloween Classroom Party!! I will keep adding ideas as I find them!!

Name Skeletons- Garden of Praise

You have the kids fold a black piece of paper in half have them write their name in chalk so it will be thick.  Cut the name out and open paper. But a white piece of paper behind the black and and arms, head legs with more pieces of white paper.  Cute, cute skeleton! And a $ saver!

Gross, Gross, Gross!  But perfect for a Halloween party!  The best part of this snack is that is made from store bought items.

Needed:

Graham crackers

White frosting

Red decorating gel

If you bring the stuff and let them make their own it is not homemade!!  And it also will take about 10 minutes so it's perfect for rotations!

Thursday Tip Day!

Today's Tip: Some crafts can work for any party during the year!

I think this cute magnet can work all year long!  I also love it for a homework magnet.  You could always grab a pumpkin or tree or heart for any other holiday, and just use holiday paper! For the younger grades I would precut the paper instead of having them cut the letters out.
