2023-10-05


Halloween is here, and what better way to celebrate than by getting creative with your little ones? Trefoil’s range of Schneider stationery offers a world of possibilities for fun and engaging Halloween crafts. So grab your scissors, glue, and colourful Schneider markers, and let’s dive into some crafty adventures!

Boo-tiful Masks:

Transform your kids into spooky creatures with homemade Halloween masks. Start with a plain mask template, which you can easily find online, and let your child’s imagination run wild with Schneider markers. From cute pumpkins to eerie ghosts, they can bring their favourite characters to life. Add some Schneider glitter glue for an extra touch of magic!

Wicked Window Decorations:

Turn your windows into a haunted display with Schneider window markers. These washable markers allow your children to unleash their creativity on glass surfaces without any worries. Encourage them to draw spooky scenes, like a witch flying across the moon or a haunted house filled with bats and spiders. You can even have a friendly competition to see who can create the scariest window decoration!

Pumpkin Palooza:

No Halloween is complete without pumpkins. Instead of the traditional carving, why not try some pumpkin painting? Schneider markers are perfect for this craft. Let your kids design their own pumpkin faces, draw intricate patterns, or create colourful pumpkin characters. The markers’ vibrant colours will make their designs truly stand out. Don’t forget to take a family photo with your pumpkins once they’re finished!

Spooky Silhouettes:

Transform your house into a haunted mansion with spooky silhouettes. Schneider scissors are excellent for cutting intricate shapes and designs. Help your kids cut out witches, bats, black cats, and other Halloween-themed silhouettes from black construction paper. Attach them to the walls, windows, or doors for an eerie effect. Add some Schneider glue for a secure hold, and let the shadows cast a spellbinding ambiance.

Franken-friends:

Encourage your child’s imagination by creating their very own Halloween-themed characters using Schneider pens and pencils. They can draw and colour spooky monsters, witches, or vampires, then cut them out and glue them onto cardboard. With a little imagination, they can turn their flat drawings into 3D creatures by adding tabs and folding the cardboard. These “Franken-friends” can make delightful decorations or even star in their very own Halloween puppet show!

Remember, crafting should be a fun and stress-free activity for both you and your children. Ensure the workspace is safe, supervise when needed, and let their creativity soar. Trefoil’s Schneider stationery offers a wide range of high-quality tools that are safe for kids to use, making the experience all the more enjoyable.

So, this Halloween, get ready for a day filled with creativity, laughter, and plenty of treats!
