Halloween will be quite different this year due to COVID19. We brought out all our decorations and have put them out in our house, but we still felt a void around Trick-Or-Treating. I've read articles online of suggestions on how to safely give out candy during quarantine, but I think it still poses some risk. There must be something else we could do. Here's our solution; a Halloween Photo Op. We put up a monster in front of our house that everyone in the neighborhood can enjoy and have their photo taken with, if they choose. This guy is up for the next few weeks, so kids have all month to enjoy, not just on Halloween.
We had most of the items on hand in our stash of Halloween decorations, but I needed a set of teeth to really add a finishing touch. These were easy to make and addictive. I kept making more and more monster teeth for around the house. Hope you will try to make a set for your home.
Materials needed: ribbon (I used black, but red might look like gums), foam sheets (I used white, but yellow or green could be used too), a stapler and scissors
First decide how big your want your teeth to be and cut them out of foam sheets.
Then cut an amount of ribbon long enough to attach your teeth, but with a little extra on each end so you can hang it up.
Staple your teeth to the ribbon and your teeth are complete.
Here is our monster photo op complete with the new set of teeth
And a few others I made to decorate around the house
