Now that Lucy is getting older (almost to those tween years- eek!), it’s been fun watching her create all kinds of crafts and projects that are so different than ones she made when she was younger. I can’t wait to show her this collection of Halloween project for older kids to help inspire her to come up with some great creations for Halloween!
If you have some kiddos that aren’t really “kiddos” anymore and are looking for more complex Halloween crafts, these projects are perfect! Older kids will love just about everything in this collection. They can create the Halloween projects just as they are, or use them as a springboard to come up with their own Halloween creations.

I LOVE these! Thank you for the much needed inspiration! I would love if we can collaborate? 🙂
What great craft ideas for older “kiddos”. I love spending the holidays with my nephew, and I’m always looking for fun things we can do together. Now that he’s getting older, it’s more challenging for me to keep him away from his phone. Even though it’s after Halloween, these paper skull luminaries could be adapted for Christmas! Thanks for the great craft ideas, Chelsey.
