Directions
Start by downloading and printing the template. Once the template is printed, gather the materials for this fun activity. Get those scissors ready, and let’s help the kids bring this unicorn ghost to life!
Take the inner ear pieces and the main ghost body. Glue the pink ear pieces onto the center of the outer ear shapes of the ghost.
Gather the bang pieces and sort them into top, middle, and bottom layers. Then help your child glue them together to make one colorful piece. This step is great for fine motor skills.
Help your child glue them to the top of the ghost’s head, right between the ears.
A unicorn isn’t a unicorn without its horn! Take the horn piece and glue it on top of the bangs.
Take the two small pink circles and glue one onto each side of the ghost’s face. They sit right below the eyes and give our ghost a super sweet, blushy look.
Take the mane pieces and glue them along the side of the unicorn ghost’s head, just below the right ear. Once in place, the colorful mane completes your unicorn ghost craft!
Isn’t this unicorn ghost just the cutest? Your kids will love making it and showing it off! Be sure to check out more of our favorite Halloween art ideas for even more spooky-fun creations.
