Lollipop Ghosts



These cute and friendly ghosts will be a sweet addition to any Halloween function! Make enough for your child's class or make just a few to have at home. Fast and simple is the name of the game here. I'll be you even have the materials on hand right now!



Kids love to help with these. Older children can cut the paper and tie them off while the smaller kids can wrap them up and draw on faces.




MATERIALS NEEDED:
Scissors
Lollipops or suckers
Tissue paper or facial tissues
Ribbon or string
Black marker




Step 1: Cut a piece of tissue paper to the desired size for your lollipop.




Step 2: Lay the piece of tissue over your hand and stick the lollipop in the center upside-down and wrap the paper over the top.




Step 3: Gather the tissue around the stick just under the candy and tie with ribbon or string.




Step 4: Draw on a face. The face can be traditional (as shown), funny or cute. Use your imagination and you'll come up with many faces for your new spooky-sweet friends!

  3. Cute idea Stephanie! We have left over tootsie pops from my daughter's birthday, so we could easily make those.
