These cute Halloween pumpkins are perfect for your little ones this Halloween! A green Frankenstein pumpkin, a black cat pumpkin, and an orange jack-o-lantern pumpkin are easy to make with paint, foam, pumpkins and our free printable templates. These cuties make a fun Halloween craft and match the Ghoul Gang kids' party supplies perfectly. You can also display them as centerpieces like we did for our Little Monsters Halloween Party!
You will need three foam pumpkins for this craft. One will stay orange, while the other two will get painted. Use spray paint to paint one pumpkin green and one black. Paint a second coat if needed. Print the free printable templates. Use scissors to cut a rectangle around each individual piece. Place the correct color of foam under the piece and cut out the template and the piece of foam underneath. You could also trace each piece, but you can save time and skip a step if you cut both the template and the foam at the same time.
Now that all of the pieces are cut for each pumpkin, glue the parts together that are stacked on top of each other with tacky glue (eyes and the pupils, teeth and mouth, etc.). Add some gold foil details, just like the designs in the Ghoul Gang party supplies. To do this, cut a piece of gold foil that fits over the Frankenstein scar and the pumpkin nose that was cut. Remove the paper backing and place the gold foil over the top. Cut around the foam to remove the excess gold foil. For the cat ears, I just cut a piece of gold foil into a triangle, peeled off the paper backing, and placed it inside the cat ears.
Use a hot glue gun and glue sticks to adhere the pumpkin parts to each pumpkin. Paint the orange pumpkin stem gold with gold paint and a foam brush.
Display these cute pumpkins at a Little Monsters Halloween Party for the cutest centerpieces ever! You can also make matching Little Monsters Balloons and Pin the Nose on the Pumpkin Game for even more fun for toddlers and younger kids.
