1 Monster Eyes (Toilet Roll Tubes & Glow Sticks)
Number one in our super easy crafty Halloween decor ideas for kids is the fantastic monster eyes craft. This is such an easy Halloween craft idea for children and the end results looks suitably spooky!
All you need in order to create this super easy DIY Halloween decoration are a few glow sticks* and some empty toilet roll tubes. Simply use some scissors to cut a variety of spooky shaped eyes into the toilet roll tube (smaller children will probably need adult supervision to do this). Next, snap your glow stick and place it inside the toilet roll tube – you can secure it in place using sticky tape.
These creepy looking toilet roll eyes look amazing when strategically hidden away in hedges and flower pots, creating the appearance of monstrous Halloween characters spying on your unsuspecting trick or treaters.

4 Poison Apple Bucket

All you need for this super easy crafty Halloween decoration is a bucket or cauldron and some apples. This plays into Snow White’s poison apple predicament and looks fantastic outside when paired with a homemade sign.
5 Googly Eyed Mummy Jars

To create these cute little lanterns wrap some empty jam jars with bandage material and use some hot glue to hold it all in place. To finish it off, add some googly eyes, and voila – one mummy jar! Pop a battery operated tea light* inside and watch the spooky flickering candle light bring your mummy to life.
