I love doing crafts with my daughter. It is always fun to see what she can do. One of my favorite crafts to do with her is shape crafts. I love to watch what she will construct and listen to her tell the stories about what she just made. Last night we took some of those shapes & used them to form haunted houses. Here’s how…
Cut out a bunch of shapes as shown. You will need two shapes for your house base & tower, two triangles for your roofs & two rectangles for chimneys. Cut small squares & rectangles out of yellow paper for the windows.
Glue your house base in place.
Glue on your roof. Draw a cross in the middle of your yellow squares to form the windows & then glue them in place as well.
Glue your tower next to your house & add the chimneys.
Cut out a circle to form a moon & glue it in place. Add googly eyes to finish off your haunted houses.
These houses came out so cute that it inspired one more haunted house craft.

I totally did a haunter house project with my girls last year and just reminded me of this here today. Loved both your versions 🙂
