This cute ghost is easy to make from a balloon and two plastic grocery bags.

It makes a great Halloween decoration or a toy (but not for very young children). This ghost flies really well!

Supplies Needed:
  • A white balloon
  • Scissors
  • 2 white plastic grocery bags
  • Tape
  • A black marker

Instructions

1.

Cut the handles off the white plastic grocery bags. If there are colored markings on the bags, cut them off too.

Cut the handles off a white plastic bag.
2.

Leaving the seam at the bottom of the bags intact, cut the bags into strips.

Cut vertical strips out of the bag, leaving them connected at one end.
3.

Blow up a white balloon.

Tape the plastic bags around the end of the balloon (tape the bags in a circle a few inches from one end of the balloon). If you plan on hanging the ghost up as a decoration, tape the plastic bags around the plain end, leaving the tied end of the balloon exposed so you can tie a string to the top of the ghost.

Blow up a white baloon and tape it to your bag.
4.

Using a black marker, draw two eyes and a mouth on the ballon.

You now have a spooky ghost that you can use as a Halloween decoration or as a toy (but not for very young children). This ghost flies really well!

Draw a face on the balloon
