This recycled kid’s craft is a great activity not only to do at home, but at Girl or Boy Scouts, the library, church, school, or other fun group event. Anyway, in honor of fun and not scary monsters, here is a fun kids craft for Halloween. We had it on a record album and my brother and I would blast it and dance to it in our basement. Remember this song? I loved it growing up. Lyrics from the Monster Mash by Bobby Pickett
