Decorating for Halloween is always fun. Getting the kids to help out if even more fun. I’ve been saving up the boxes and containers from the kitchen so Shae could build her own Haunted Village.
Using cereal boxes, orange juice bottles, cinnamon shakers and more Shae and I put together a rather large village that is now taking up residence on our bookcase in the living room.
Materials
boxes and containers headed for the trash or recycle bin.
paint, themed stickers, foam shapes, glitter glue, construction paper.
Directions
Arrange your boxes into your village. Think about height and dimension and layers when arranging it. Decide on your buildings and colors and let your child get to work.
This activity can be done for any holiday or season just by changing colors and flourishes.
