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.

  • 5/5 from Sarah Welsh-Welling, attended Oct 2024: Pumpkin kids craft-Such a lovely class. Small amount of children which made it more personal. The teacher was so lovely and kind, she couldn’t be more helpful. Materials used were good quality, perhaps could have had a bigger range like pipe cleaners/sequins/glitter but this didn’t effect the overall class. Both my little boy and myself had a fab time. Thank you
