Mickey Mouse Pumpkin Craft For Kids [Free Template]

Have you and your family ever visited Disneyland during their Halloween celebrations? It’s so much fun to visit during that time for lots of reasons.

First, there are all the Halloween costumes the Disney characters wear. Second, there’s the nighttime trick-or-treating. There are also special parades, memorabilia, and even fireworks! But one of our favorite things about Halloween at Disneyland is taking a picture right in front of the giant Mickey Mouse pumpkin statue on Main Street.

So, we decided to make this Mickey Mouse pumpkin craft – inspired by the giant Mickey pumpkin!

It’s an easy way to bring some Disneyland magic into your home during the Halloween season. Kids will also work on their fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination while constructing this activity!

It’s just another one of our pumpkin crafts for kids that make celebrating Halloween as a family extra special!
