Spooky Things

This is a wonderful book. The projects are so fresh and exciting. They are outstanding for group use. Wait until you check out the skeleton made of macaroni. All of the ideas are made on pieces of paper, cardboard, or styrofoam trays and use a variety of easy-to-obtain materials. Almost all the projects are two- or three- dimensional, like a mummy that rises out of a paper tube "tomb". There's also a wonderful witch, a great creepy bug and snake picture, and glittery ghosts. A lot of the projects would work very well as dioramas, and in fact one of the projects is a spooky castle diorama. I believe that there is something for every age, from little ones who frighten easily to older kids who really love spooky things.
