Something fun for the Kids - Jack on the Box!


I know that this blog is for recipes but I cannot resist putting something up there for kids to enjoy around Halloween and I hope you guys find it as cute as I do.

What You Need:
Juice Boxes
Tape Measure
Black, White, Green and Orange Card Stock
Small and Medium Circle Paper Punches
Clear Tape
Adhesive Wiggle Eyes
Scissors
Scrapbook Adhesive

What You Do:
1. Measure height and circumference of the juice box. Add an inch to the circumference and cut a rectangle that size from the colored card stock. Measure the box's top, adding an inch to the length (for folding over the box sides); cut. Create straw hole with a small circle punch.

2. Use a medium circle punch or scissors to cut eerie creatures' eyes, mouths, hair and stems from card stock. Adhere wiggle eyes to eye cutouts. Stick on your funny faces using scrapbook adhesive.

3. Place the small rectangle on top of the juice box. Align straw hole and tape sides into place. Next, wrap box with the large rectangle, overlapping the ends at the back: tape in place. Share and sip!

I just wish that I could share the picture that is in the magazine! It is so cute!
