Creative kids will love crafting a unique Halloween decoration that is certain to set a spooky scene! This mache pumpkin project is a great way to get the Halloween fun started and it’ll teach them all about making with mache.
The tutorial is designed for kids aged three years and over. They’ll have an expert Hobbycraft colleague showing them every step of the way, with a fantastic variety of craft materials provided in store to help them transform one spooky pumpkin – from googly eyes to tissue paper! There are so many ways to make something unique.
Whether kids have never made with mache before or they just love getting stuck in with this versatile craft, the workshop will be a fun way to embrace Halloween excitement.
All participants will walk away with pumpkins to put on display. Please note, you may need to allow for drying time.
Workshop suitable for ages 3+ years. All kids’ craft workshops require adult supervision. One ticket is required per child.
Our workshop spaces in some stores are located in open areas, and we will endeavour to minimise interruption from other crafters.
Please note: Messy aprons are not supplied. We would recommend bringing your own or
This workshop is also available as a private workshop for group bookings of 4+.
Keeping everyone safe
At Hobbycraft, we want our workshops to be enjoyable, inclusive, and safe for everyone. Some workshops are suitable for children, and where this is the case, a parent or legal guardian is responsible for supervising their child at all times unless the workshop is clearly stated as suitable for independent attendance. Our colleagues and instructors are there to guide the activity and support a safe environment, and if any concerns about safety or wellbeing arise during a workshop, these should be raised with a member of staff straight away.

Recent reviews of Kids' Halloween Mache Pumpkin Workshop
- 5/5 from Cheryl Wood, attended Oct 2025: Pumpkin paper mache was really good for my 3 year old granddaughter. Plenty of different coloured tissue paper. Some sparkles and feathers added was a lovely touch. The lady was very nice, polite and friendly.
- 5/5 from Caroline Pearse, attended Oct 2025: The children were welcomed immediately, and sat down. The class began promptly, and with concise instructions, it wasnt rushed, nd the children thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Will def be back, this is our 2nd year at a Hallowe'en craft class, and we have loved both
- 5/5 from Katy Hill, attended Oct 2025: A huge thank you to the lovely Ellie for running such a fun and creative Halloween workshop! Her enthusiasm and patience with us made it a real success. I have attended many workshops run by Ellie before, as I always take adults with moderate intellectual difficulties. Every time we all leave with brilliant creations and having had a great time. Highly recommend!
- 4/5 from Linda Coulter, attended Oct 2025: I booked this for my 6 year old arty granddaughter who loves these workshops! She absolutely loved decorating her paper mache pumpkin with different coloured tissue papers and was proud to bring home to show mummy and daddy her creation! As usual very well run by the lady Lorraine who advised and guided the children well
- 3/5 from Stephanie McKay, attended Oct 2025: This class was OK. I wouldn't do it again. I expected a bit more for the kids to decorate. It literally was a pumpkin mould and then covering it with ripped craft paper and glue. Perhaps giving the children other little bits like buttons, wobbly eyes, pipe cleaners and other little bits to make it a bit more interesting. We will be adding these to ours once it dries. We were done in roughly 30 mins. Also, I would advise to bring a bag/box as the pumpkin will be soaked with PVA glue.
- 5/5 from Anonymised ClassBento customer, attended Oct 2024: Fantastic workshop. My 3 year old loved it. We will definitely be booking another class.
- 5/5 from Paula Horwood, attended Oct 2024: I attended the pumpkin decorating workshop with my 3 year old and she had a great time! Lovely instructor, all materials ready and a quick straightforward demo to get us started. My daughter loved getting sticky and creative - and the piece de resistance at the end - the googly eyes! The hour went very quickly and no clean-up required. Aprons provided. Will definitely look at future workshops here!

- 5/5 from Linda Warner, attended Oct 2022: Lisa was lovely. Very helpful. Lots of resources to use and she even found some pink paint. One hour was plenty of time for a 3 year old. Definitely recommend.
