Torn Paper Mummy Craft Idea for Kids to Make This Halloween

Halloween is just around the corner, and what better way to get into the spooky spirit than with a fun and easy craft project for kids? This torn paper mummy craft is perfect for little hands and big imaginations. Plus, we’ve included a free printable to make it even easier to create your very own mummy masterpiece. Let’s get started!

Craft Supplies:

Before we dive into the steps, gather these simple supplies:

Directions:

Now that your materials are ready, it’s time to bring your MUMMY to life. Follow these easy steps and enjoy watching your kids’ creativity bloom.

  • Start by downloading and printing the FREE “Some MUMMY Loves You” printable (linked above) onto a sheet of white cardstock. This will be the base for your craft.
  • Let the kids color the two eyeball designs and the accompanying text piece from the printable. Once they’re done, carefully cut out these pieces. (Younger kids may need help with the cutting.)
  • Take a sheet of colored construction paper and glue the two eyeball cutouts in the center. Set the text piece aside for now – we’ll add it at the end.
  • Help the kids tear white construction paper into strips. The uneven, jagged edges will give the mummy a more authentic and spooky wrapped look. This part is always a hit with kids—it’s messy and fun!
  • Apply a generous layer of school glue across the construction paper background. Have the kids press their torn paper strips onto the glue, overlapping them slightly to create the wrapped mummy effect. Keep adding strips until the entire mummy is covered and they’re happy with the design.
  • Once the mummy is fully wrapped, attach the “Some MUMMY Loves You” text cutout anywhere on the design. You can place it at the bottom, the top, or even off to the side – get creative!
  • Allow the finished “torn paper mummy” masterpiece to dry completely. Once it’s dry, display it proudly on the fridge, a bulletin board, or even in a window for Halloween!
  • Don’t forget to snap a photo of your child’s spooky mummy craft and share it with the hashtag #GluedToMyCrafts or tag us on social media. We’d love to see their amazing artwork and celebrate their creativity!

Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible.
