Directions

First, get the printable templates for both Frankenstein's Monster and Dracula.

For the monster, use brown paper to cut out hair shapes and black paper to cut out bolts.

Flip a pear-flavored applesauce cup over so the bottom faces up. Use a hot glue gun to attach the hair pieces on top, letting some hang down the sides. Then glue the bolts onto the sides of the cup near the base.

Stick googly eyes onto the front of the cup and use a permanent marker to draw a mouth.

For Dracula, cut hair from black paper, a cape from red paper, and fangs from white paper.

Turn a regular applesauce cup upside down and glue the black hair piece to the top, making sure the widow's peak points toward the front. Place googly eyes on each side of the widow's peak.

Attach the paper fangs below the eyes and draw a mouth using a permanent marker.

Apply glue to the cape and attach it to one side of the cup, then wrap it around the back and secure it to the opposite side to form a full cape.
