Halloween Cube Latern

This is another simple 'ible you can do with children (maybe 4th/5th grade).

• Black think cardboard
• tissue paper (orange, yellow, red, purple)
• glue
• scissors and cutter
• led with batteries

Draw a "dice" shape on the black cardboard. You can use an image of dice you can find online, or just as I do: use a square and draw the T shape. Pay attention to leave the right "wings" to glue the cube. In the photos you can see that I leave too many "wings", but it's ok, when you'll glue the cube, you'll cut the useless ones.

Draw or copy the shapes of halloween theme. I chose cat, ghost, pumpkin and bat. Lets say that you know Halloween better than me, so you choose :)

Pay attention: the shape should be in the right direction when you close the cube.

With cutter and scissors cut out the shapes.

If you do this with children, pay attention if you let them use the cutter. You can let them use a punch, that is safer even with small children.

Glue squares of tissue paper over the shapes.

Glue eyes and mouth on the outside of the shapes.

Close the cube. Leave the cover openable, so you can put the led in.

I used a little led with changing colours and blinking light I already had at home.
