My kids had so much fun decorating their Halloween haunted houses. The template gave them plenty of opportunities to add their own creativity. They loved opening and closing the door and windows to see who was hiding inside. This craft reminded me of our popular Halloween Lift-the-Flap 5 Little Pumpkins Craft. If you have more time for crafting I recommend checking it out too.
Look who is saying BOO!

You can watch our short tutorial video or continue to the directions below. You can also print the directions at the end of this post to make craft time easy!
Print the template out on black paper and cut out the house. It may be a bit hard to see the lines so you can trace around them with white chalk or white crayon to make it easier to cut out.
Children can cut out their houses but adults may need to help them cut out the windows. I used an exacto knife (NOT for KIDS to use).
TIP: If you want your children to help cut out the windows you can make it easier for them by cutting a hole on the line so they can fit their scissors into the hole and continue cutting.
When cutting out the door and windows only cut around 3 sides. The fourth side will be folded so it can open and close.
Glue the house to a piece of paper. Make sure not to glue the doors and windows shut.
Decorate the house with white chalk or white crayon.
Decorate the house with Halloween Stickers-affiliate link or add drawings of Halloween friends that can be found inside the house when the windows are opened.
