Halloween Decorations - Ghosts

We are a little out of control when it comes to Halloween at our house.  It is my second favorite holiday, and sooo much fun with a 3 year old.  Finally, it's time to start all those fun crafts I pin on Pinterest. Well, the easy ones anyway.

I put together a calender of crafts on The Captain's Preschool schedule so that we could do something on the days when he wasn't in school.  And I organized the crafts by theme every week.  So our first week we did ghost crafts.  Here's a look at what we did:

Ghost footprints and leaves

The Captain glued on the moons and trees and both children got their feet painted.  Joy was much more cooperative than I thought she'd be.  And we managed to keep things pretty clean.  The leaves we got from a tree in our back yard and spray painted.  

We stuffed garbage bags with the Styrofoam from my anniversary present that the children ripped apart and snowed all over my house.  This time clean up turned into something super fun.   

This is left over from last year, but still cool.

I bought this paper lantern at the dollar store along with a slew of other Halloween stuff.  Did I mention we are out of control?  This lights up, assuming I have batteries somewhere around here.
