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.

Recent reviews of Kids' Halloween Mache Pumpkin Workshop

  • 5/5 from Marion Breau, attended Oct 2025: My Granddaughter Zoe loved the class. The lady who was helping was marvellous with her. She made a lovely mummy pumpkin for halloween.. I missed the class I had booked her in for and the store went out of their way to find time to do this with her. A very happy girl. Thank you so much.
  • 5/5 from Carrie Watts, attended Oct 2025: Fabulous as always. Kirsten was encouraging and kind and enthusiastic. She makes each crafting event a delight.
  • 5/5 from Claire McIver, attended Oct 2024: I just had to share our experience at the pumpkin class today! I was a bit nervous since my son is only 3 and I wasn't sure if he would sit through it. However, it turned out to be absolutely brilliant! The class was held in a lovely private area at the back of the store, and Lisa, who was running the session, was fantastic with the kids. My son had such a wonderful time, and I can’t wait to book more classes in the future. Thank you for such a great experience!
  • 5/5 from Tiffany Joiner, attended Oct 2024: Lovely workshop and very helpful and friendly staff. Great for children and a nice seasonal gift to bring home.
  • 3/5 from Anonymised ClassBento customer, attended Oct 2024: Ok is being generous. Our workshop lasted 35-40 max (is supposed to be an hour) The staff member did a fantastic job continuing work on her own pumpkin however she provided very little advice, information, tips or help to the 5 and 6 years old children who I booked this treat for. We have been to a previous workshop and it was really great, so think my disappointment at this one was partially due to it not meeting expectations. The 6 year old managed an ok job working independently, and I helped the younger on. Reduced price at £8 each but it really wasn’t much fun.
  • 5/5 from Monika Fox, attended Oct 2023: My two girls loved it. They had lots of fun. The teacher was very nice, helpful and interacting well with everyone. Kids had plenty of materials to complete the work.
  • 5/5 from Lexie Kelsie, attended Oct 2022: Teacher was nice It was good fun I liked taking pumpkin home to finish it My sister and i have finished pumpkins now
  • 5/5 from Shelley O'Neill, attended Oct 2022: Jay was fantastic leading the class today - really friendly and helpful. My four year old son is delighted with the pumpkin that he decorated and we’ve bought a few Christmas paper mache gifts to decorate ourselves at home. Highly recommend.
  • 5/5 from Jennifer Collingwood, attended Oct 2022: Great fun and Jaden Is always great fun with the kids :) enjoy doing hobby craft classes.
  • 5/5 from Tanya Cooper, attended Oct 2022: My grandson had a wonderful time the person who took the workshop was fantastic and brilliant with them. The craft shop was easy to get to and had plenty of parking. Everything was provided and it was great value for money. My grandson loved everything, and he really enjoyed himself. He enjoyed it that much wants to do more.
  • 5/5 from Lynne Clark, attended Oct 2022: Very friendly & helpful instructor with plenty of materials provided. A fun way to spend an hour & good value to take a good sized pumpkin home.
  • 4/5 from Emma Moore, attended Oct 2022: The teacher was great with the children and really encouraged them. The kids enjoyed the class.
  • 4/5 from Christina Coons, attended Oct 2022: Unfortunately they had run out of pumpkins to decorate and the boys were quite disappointed. We did get a substitute item but it wasn't the halloween craft session we had planned. The man running the sessions was fantastic, he engaged the kids well and did a fantastic job with them! Ultimately it was good although we didn't really get what we paid for.
  • 3/5 from Morag Murray, attended Oct 2022: This was a nice experience but would have been better if enough seats, more brushes and maybe scissors to cut the paper.
