Spooky Scarecrow Activity
Materials :
4" Styrofoam egg-shaped ball.
2 Wood 1/4" dowels - 12" length
Off white or burlap fabric cut in a 18" square
Orange construction paper or foam
Black marker
2 wiggle eyes
Straw hat to fit head
Flannel shirt - child's small
Raffia
Low temperature hot glue gun
Scissors
Clay pot
Halloween embellishments
Craft or florist wire
Various Halloween chocolates and candies
Directions:
Take the two dowel pieces and form a cross. Move one dowel up so it is 5 inches from the top of the other dowel. Wire them together where they cross.
Push the short end of the dowel into the bottom of the foam ball. Cover it with off-white fabric. Using a wire or a rubber band, secure the fabric to the dowel, at the base of the foam ball.
Fit the straw hat on the top temporarily, to find correct placement of the eyes. Glue wiggle eyes to the fabric. Between them, glue an orange triangle for the nose cut from construction paper or foam.
Using the black marker, draw the mouth.
To make the hair, remove the hat and cut raffia into 8-inch pieces. Unwrap each piece at the ends, and cut the ends of the flattened raffia to look like straw. Glue the raffia on to the top of the cloth covered foam egg. Lastly, glue the hat on top of raffia hair.
Tie some additional pieces of the raffia under the head.
For the arms, cut four pieces of raffia, each 8 inches in length. Unwrap only one end and cut strips as you did for the hair. Do this for all four pieces. Glue two pieces together and then glue to end of one of the arms. Wrap the raffia around the arm with wire to make it secure. Repeat for the other side.
Place the child's shirt over the horizontal dowel. Allowing some of the tied raffia to poke out of the top. You can also use the same technique that you used for the hands to create straw pieces to stick out from the shirt. Tie a piece of wire around the waist of the shirt to secure it to the length you want.
Place the base of the scarecrow (including the shirt) into the clay pot. Cover with candy to hold the scarecrow upright.
Glue Halloween themed embellishments to the front of the pot.
Completed craft is for decorative purposes only. Candy used in craft should not be eaten.

Halloween Party Ideas - Tips and Tricks
PARTY THEMES
Consider the ages of the kids--one child's thrilling haunted house is another's chilling nightmare. If you will be hosting a mix of ages, be sure to set up the scariest events out of sight of the main party. A mad scientist's lab, for example, can be set up in a spare room so that younger kids can pass on the pleasure of watching others touch "brains" (cold spaghetti).
ACTIVITIES
Plan more events than you think you need (and plan for bad weather, too). Prepare easy activities: bobbing for apples, painting Halloween scenes, or marching in a costume parade.
MENU
If your party is in lieu of trick-or-treating, you can be more liberal with the sweets, but you still want to get something in your guests' stomachs besides candy. Search for Halloween recipes that are sure to "scare" up everyone's appetite.
DECORATIONS
Don't go overboard--mood lighting, creepy music and a few well-placed, homemade decorations will amply set the scene. Pass on anything with a flame, and keep in mind that kids are clumsy in their costumes--anything fragile or sharp should be well out of the way.
