Easy Halloween Crafts for Kids

My kids are huge fans of crafts, specifically Halloween crafts for kids. This is one area that can test my patience. I am team easy prep for parents, lots of time having fun for kids! I firmly believe it should take the kids a lot longer to do the craft than the time it takes the parent to set up the craft.

My mom is a former teacher who just retired a few months ago. She was the master of easy, cheap, and fun crafts kids love. When she mentioned Q-tip skeletons I knew it was something I could get on board with!
