Q: Halloween crafts?
Does anyone have any good ideas for Halloween crafts for my 11 year old daughter and I?

A: I always bake the pumpkin seeds left over from carving pumpkins. Just clean them of the orange goo, coat them with a bit of oil and salt and put them on a baking tray at 350 until lightly toasted. (About 5-10 minutes.) And when I used to live in a house instead of an apartment, I would stuff an old shirt and pants with straw to make a scarecrow, with a pumpkin for the head.

Q: At what website can I find some halloween crafts?
I babysit a five year old boy and a two year old girl. I've been wanting to do something with them for halloween, like, crafts, baking cookies, anything cute, fun, and easy having to do with halloween. Can anyone find some websites with halloween crafts or baking ideas? Any little thing helps! Thanks!

A: there are loads to find when you search for them in your search engine, and you can also look for pictures of halloween decor on the internet and copy them by making it out of cardboard or other easy materials. here are some websites i found; > http://www.makingfriends.com/halloween.htm >http://crafts.kaboose.com/holidays/halloween/ >http://www.enchantedlearning.com/crafts/halloween/ >http://www.dltk-holidays.com/Halloween/index.html >http://familyfun.go.com/arts-and-crafts/season/specialfeature/halloween_ms_crafts/ hope i helped :)

Q: What font is the one used often for Halloween crafts? It has curls on the ends?
I want to make my own Halloween crafts where you paint words like Boo etc onto pumpkins etc.. there is one font I see alot for Halloween that has "curly cues" or something on the ends. I haven't found it yet on my computer. It is curlz! Now, I have found a .zip file and unzipped it, but how do I get that font to where Word etc will use it???

A: Are you talking about chiller or curlz ?

Q: Are there any scary halloween crafts that I could do?

Q: Any creative ideas on fall/halloween crafts to do at home with a 2 and 4 year old?
I am a stay at home mom and I was wondering if anybody had quick and creative craft ideas to do for fall/halloween. I have a messy two year old and a four old who loves to be creative on her own terms. Thanks for your ideas :)

A: make a big tree out of construction paper and then have them make leaves with their handprints (you can even do it like a calender and have them put up the leaves as the days go, numbering the leaves as you go along). sticker art, little ones love stickers - though the 2 year old may still be a little young. make cookies and have them decorate them - you can usually find really neat halloween jimmies at the grocery store or michaels/joann's. cut out 2 big paper pumpkins and give them some black (washable of course) paint to make faces (the 2 year old will probably not make a face, but will have a good time playing with the paint)... you could do witches or monsters too that's all i can come up with off the top of my head

Q: fun Halloween crafts or activities to do with 3 young girls?
ok so i'm babysitting today and its supposed to rain. what are some cheap halloween activities or crafts we could do? they're 3 girls aged 6, 9, and 10. so they can handle using scissors and coloring and all that. it could even be baking or making some type of cute food item. if you have specific ideas for things you do or even a website that you've used it would be greatly appreciated! thanks!

A: Here are some fun websites with craft ideas. www.bhg.com www.dltk-kids.com You could make pumpkin pins out of Fun Foam. Use wiggly eyes and shapes for the mouth and nose. They sell peel and stick pin backs. I would use Tacky Glue just to make sure the pin backs stay.

Q: What are some good halloween crafts ideas for community's Halloween Carnival without spending too much money?
