Beware! There are monsters everywhere! Make this fun Marvelous Monster to scare -- and delight -- your friends.
 Marvelous Monster Halloween Craft for Kids |
What You'll Need:
Tennis ball
Craft knife
Black, green, and orange felt
Scissors
White glue
Pencil
Yarn
Small candies or toys
Ask an adult to cut a 2-1/2-inch slit in the middle of the tennis ball.
Cut 2 triangle-shaped mouth pieces from felt -- the base of the triangles should be 2-1/2 inches wide. Put glue on the top and bottom edges of the ball's slit. Glue the edges of the triangles into the slit to form a beak. Slide a pencil into the slit to keep it open while the glue dries.
Cut eyes from felt, and glue them in place. Use felt or yarn tentacles to decorate your monster.
When the glue is dry, squeeze the monster's sides to make it open its mouth. Fill it up with wrapped candy or toys!
