Directions

  1. Starting at the bottom of the banana, begin wrapping the gauze roll around the length of the banana. Criss cross the gauze or leave gaps in it to give it more of a mummy feel.
  2. Be sure to leave a small gap near the top of the banana where you would like the eyes to be.
  3. Secure the gauze to the back of your banana with a small dab of hot glue.
  4. Attach googly eyes to the front of your banana where you have created a gap in the gauze.
  5. Use black craft foam to cut out the shape of two bat wings, leaving a bit of extra foam on the inside to attach it to the back of the pudding cup.
  6. Attach the wings to the back of the pudding cup using hot glue.
  7. Lastly, use hot glue to attach eyes on the front of the pudding cup.
  8. Begin by gluing a craft pom pom to the top of the backside of your cheese and crackers package, above the cheese compartment.
  9. Glue two googly eyes on the cheese compartment of the package below the pom pom.
  10. Use scissors to cut two arm and hand shapes out of the green craft foam.
  11. Hot glue the arms to the sides of the cracker compartment of your snack.
  12. For this snack, you can use either an actual orange, or an orange or peach fruit cup.
  13. Begin by using a black marker to draw the face of a Jack-o-Lantern onto the orange or fruit cup.
  14. Cut out a long rectangular piece out of green craft foam to make the stem.
  15. Fold the rectangle in half to make a loop, and hot glue the loop to the top of your orange or fruit cup.
