Easy Halloween Craft

Willow had a serious case of cranky pants yesterday morning and I needed a quick easy no prep idea to entertain her. Enter this craft.

This is a simple easy ghost craft for Halloween.

What you need:
Coffee filters
Scrap paper, napkins, toilet paper, anything to use for stuffing
A twist tie or pipe cleaner
And for added fun: a dowel rod, pops-cycle stick, string etc

Start with the coffee filter. Lay it out flat. Add a small amount of stuffing, I used scrap paper.

Then scrunch the coffee filter around the stuffing. Secure with a twist tie or pipe cleaner.

Then just have fun. Willow and I flew our ghosts around for and hour. Just running back a forth.
