15 Halloween Crafts and Activities for Kids

Homemade Haunts

If you've got a tot who spooks easily at the mere thought of going to the local haunted house (we do too, we won't lie), consider making your own, like this one shown on Alpha Mom.

A fun, non-scary alternative to the ordinary haunted house, this charming playhouse project requires cardboard, painting materials, duct tape, and a box cutter (for adult use). Be sure to visit Alpha Mom for the full scoop -- she's got a fantastic pictorial on how they created their own haunted house from start to finish and tips on finding inexpensive supplies. Overall, a crafty fun idea for some super scare-free, Halloween fun!
