Spooky Goofballs

These guys might look square, but they’re a lot of fun at Halloween parties!

Spooky Goofballs

Ingredients

  • 1 box PEBBLES™ cereal
  • Construction or wrapping paper (the larger the better) in Halloween colors
  • Scissors
  • Glue
  • Markers
  • Clear tape
  • 2 push pins

Instructions

FRANKENSTEIN

  • Tape the top of the empty box shut.
  • Wrap the box, like a present, with green paper.
  • Cut a strip of black paper the width of the box and cut the bottom edge so that it has fringe. Draw a zigzag mouth, scars, and cut out white half circles for the eyes (color in the pupils with a black marker). Don’t forget to add a massive unibrow.
  • Glue your facial features into place.
  • Press a push pin into each side of the box, low down where Frankenstein’s neck should be. Put a little bit of glue on the inside edge of the push pins to keep them in place.

DRACULA

  • Tape the top of the empty box shut.
  • Wrap the box, like a present, with purple paper.
  • Cut a strip of black paper the width of the box and cut two half moons side-by-side to create Dracula’s widow’s peak. Cut out white half circles for the eyes (color in the pupils with a black marker), add the black paper unibrow, and make a mouth in any shape you like, adding red fangs to make him even creepier.
  • Glue the facial features into place.
  • Don’t stop there! Using other colors of paper, cut out eyes (be creative—your character can have one massive eye or 20 small ones), a mouth (lots of teeth!) and anything else you think your goofball needs. Hair, eyebrows, a mustache—the options are endless.
