| Wrap the empty box up with construction paper (or gift wrap) in an
appropriate color (black or orange would work) or you could paint it with
acrylic or poster paint.
|
| Cut a slit in the top of the box large enough to fit typical Halloween
treats (small chocolate bars, suckers, etc) in the top.

a no-top box like a shoe box.
|
|
| OPTIONAL: Glue the templates to pieces of thin cardboard and let dry
|
| Cut out the template pieces.

| Glue the bow (template 2) under the chin for a boy or on top of the
head for a girl |
| Glue the whole body onto the back of the box, facing over the top (so

| Glue the pumpkin (template 1) onto the front of the box |
