Start by gluing together seven of the green craft sticks using hot glue or craft glue. Then break (or cut) one of them in half and glue one half near the top of the other seven and one near the bottom.
8 green craft sticks
Next you’re going to cut out the witch’s hat with the paper. I used black and yellow paper.
1 piece black paper, 1 piece yellow paper
Glue the googly eyes and the witch’s hat to the popsicle stick base that you created earlier.
1 large googly eyes
Use the black marker to draw on the witch’s face and facial features.
And then finally, use the hot glue gun (or white glue for younger kids) to carefully do a strip of hot glue on the back of the popsicle sticks then carefully add on the yarn hair.
orange yarn
Notes
Make a sample beforehand so that kids know what they’re trying to create even if they don’t create something exactly like it. I know kids can get frustrated if they have no idea what they’re trying to do, or maybe that’s just me!Do this craft together. This is a great craft for adults to do with kids – adults glue and kids cut, draw, and put pieces together! Or glue the popsicle sticks together ahead of time to make this a little easier and quicker!
