Are you looking for a last minute addition to your treat line-up for Halloween? You and the kids can have these super easy ghosts made in no time! All you need for the first project is a banana and some miniature chocolate chips. If you’d like to add an “O” for a mouth, you’ll need a few Cheerios cereal pieces.
Cut the banana in half and add 2 miniature chocolate chips for eyes. I pushed the pointed side of the chocolate chip into the banana. And there you are! 2 ghosts ready for spooking your guests!
Or if you want to give your ghosts a mouth, press in 1 piece of Cheerios cereal.
I can almost hear the eerie “OOOoooo!” these ghosts are making! 😉
Are you ready for the second ghost treat? This one is easy too! You’ll need some lollipops or suckers, (I used Tootsie Roll Pops because the sucker part is nicely round), 1 paper tissue for each ghost, 1 small rubber band or a piece of string for each and a black marker or pen.
Ready? Let’s do this! First open up a tissue and lay it flat. Lay one lollipop on the tissue with the round part in the center and the stick pointing to one corner.
Fold the tissue over the lollipop to make a triangle.
Gather the 2 sides down around the lollipop to form a “head”.
Put the little rubber band or string around the “neck” of the ghost.
You can use the ghosts like they are or you can add some black dots for eyes and a mouth.
That was pretty easy, wasn’t it? Now you have 2 kinds of ghosts for your Halloween celebration!
I hope you have a great Halloween! 🙂
