Talking Jack-o-Lantern CardThis Talking Jack-o-Lantern Card is a creative Halloween kids craft! It would be a great invitation for a Halloween party, or make it for your self just to watch the Jack-o-Lantern talk by opening and closing the card. Level of Difficulty: Moderate to Difficult
This craft is rated as difficult because it can be a little tricky to cut the 'pop out' mouth, even for an adult (once you've done it once, it's easy). Any child can draw a Jack-o-Lantern around the mouth if it has been cut for them ahead of time.
Here's what you'll need...
•1 piece of white cardstock paper
Here's how you make it...
1. Fold your white paper in half and cut a straight slit. Make the cut half as big as you would like your Jack-o-Lantern's mouth. Cut the slit about 2/3 down the page.
2. Fold the edges down to make 2 triangles, then open your paper all the way.
3.Hold the paper with the folded edge towards you, as shown in the picture.
4. Poke each triangle through, turn your card to the inside, and fold the mouth out along the 'fold lines' that are already on your card (this is the tricky part, but once you've done it, it's easy!)
5. The inside of your card should have a pop out mouth now (see picture).
6. Now your ready to paint or draw on your Jack-o-Lantern. Once you've finished your drawing you will need to glue or stick on your card back (which is also the color inside your Jack-o-Lantern's mouth).
