Lots of kids go through a phase where they start to “see” monsters everywhere, especially at night when they are alone in their rooms.

Having them create their own monsters may be a great way to desensitize them.

But even if your kids aren’t afraid of monsters, engaging in these monster crafts and activities is a fun way to prepare for Halloween!

Note: For more kid-friendly Halloween activities see my Halloween Activities for Kids page.
