Get ready for a spooktacular time with Astrobright Paper!
Halloween is just around the corner, and there's no better way to celebrate than by filling your classroom with colorful, creative decorations and activities. While black cats, witches, and pumpkins are standard, why not give them a pop of color this year? Astrobright paper is perfect for adding neon vibes to spooky crafts. Its bold, vibrant hues make your classroom décor impossible to miss, creating an environment that will excite your students and get them into the Halloween spirit.
Whether you’re a teacher, a parent volunteer, or a student group leader, here are some “spooktacular” ideas to inspire your next classroom craft project!
1. Neon Pumpkin Patch Wall
Say goodbye to your traditional orange pumpkins and hello to a neon pumpkin patch that will make your classroom glow! Use Astrobright paper in colors like Cosmic Orange, Lunar Blue, and Solar Yellow to create bright pumpkin shapes that can be arranged on the classroom wall. Let each student cut out and decorate their pumpkin with glitter, googly eyes, or even spooky faces. This not only creates a stunning Halloween wall display but also gives students the chance to personalize their decorations.
Craft Tip: Make sure to use a heavier cardstock paper for a sturdier pumpkin that will last all season long! This will ensure your pumpkin patch doesn’t wilt before Halloween arrives.
2. Glow-in-the-Dark Ghost Mobiles
What’s Halloween without some ghosts floating around? Instead of the typical white sheet ghost, why not use Astrobright paper to make them glow? Choose papers in bright shades like Outrageous Orchid or Fireball Fuchsia to cut out ghost shapes. Punch a small hole at the top of each ghost and tie them to a string, then hang them from the ceiling to create a floating ghost mobile.
You can even go the extra mile and attach small glow sticks to the backs of the ghosts to create an eerie glow in the classroom when the lights are turned down. It’s spooky and colorful—everything a classroom Halloween craft should be!
Craft Tip: Want to make your ghosts extra spooky? Have the kids draw silly or scary faces on the neon ghosts, using black markers to add that Halloween charm.
3. “Boo!” Banner for the Door
Let’s face it: a good classroom decoration isn’t complete without a bold banner to welcome trick-or-treaters—or in this case, students! Create a “Boo!” banner using neon Astrobright paper that can be strung across the classroom door or bulletin board. Mix and match colors like Plasma Pink and Orbit Orange for a fun, eye-catching banner. Each student can cut out one letter or shape and add their own flair to it with markers, sequins, or stickers.
This group project not only makes your classroom look ready for Halloween but also gives students ownership of the decorations. They’ll love walking through the door every day and seeing their handiwork displayed for all to admire.
4. Bat Attack: Hanging Decorations
Who says bats have to be black? This Halloween, let’s give them a neon twist! Using Astrobright paper in bold shades like Rocket Red or Vulcan Green, students can cut out bat shapes to hang from the ceiling or place on windows. Use string to attach them to light fixtures or hang them in front of windows for a fun “bat attack” effect.
For extra creativity, let each student make a “bat family” where they create a series of bats in different sizes. Some bats can be spooky, while others can be cute or even have funny faces. The neon colors make these bats stand out even more, and students will love designing their own unique winged creatures.
5. Trick-or-Treat Bags
Need a practical Halloween craft? Have your students design their own trick-or-treat bags using Astrobright paper! Using larger sheets of cardstock printer paper, they can fold and glue the paper into bags, then decorate them with colorful ghosts, pumpkins, and witches.
Once the bags are assembled, have a mini Halloween parade in class, where students show off their bags and maybe even fill them with treats. It’s a fun and functional project that students can take home with them, ready for a night of candy gathering.
Craft Tip: Use glossy cardstock to add a high-quality feel to the bags, ensuring they are sturdy enough to handle even the heaviest candy hauls!
