Are cotton ball ghosts Spooky?

Cotton ball ghosts strike a delightful balance between spooky and cute, making them perfect for young children to create. While they capture the essence of Halloween with their ghostly appearance, their soft, fluffy texture and big eyes add a playful and friendly touch. This makes them an ideal craft for preschoolers who might find traditional Halloween decorations a bit too scary.

So, while they bring a hint of spooky fun, cotton ball ghosts are more likely to elicit smiles and giggles than fright!

Draw a picture of a large ghost on the paper.

Using a glue stick coat the inside of the ghost and stick cotton balls all over it until it is covered.

Have your child cut out two ghost eyes and a mouth from the felt and glue these on the ghost. If they aren’t comfortable with cutting yet, you can also have them already cut.
