We’ll show you a spooky way to create a fun Halloween creation using a simple household item – Q-tips! Join us in making Q-tip skeleton crafts!
By cutting these cotton swabs in half and arranging them on black paper, your children will create a great Halloween display, while also helping them learn about human anatomy.

Ready to craft with your kids?
Grab those materials, dive into crafting this Q-tip skeleton, and bring this little bony friend to life!
What you need:
Have your child draw a skull on white paper and cut it out.
Let’s continue by drawing two dots for the eyes and nose.
Tell them to have their teeth pulled too!
Have children cut Q-tips in half.
It’s time to start assembling the Q-tip skeleton.
Have the kids glue the skull onto black paper and the first half of the Q-tip as the neck.
They need another half Q-tip – this will be the spine of the skeleton.
Next glue the two halves of the Q-tip to create the shoulder.
Then add two more under the shoulders to create the ribs.
Ask them to add two more rows of Q-tips.
To create the arms, apply half of the Q-tip diagonally from the shoulder down.
Then add another half facing up.
The child can repeat this process to create the other arm facing down.
To create the pelvis, they will glue the two halves of the W slightly upward – towards the ribs.
Next, have your child create the legs in the same way they did the arms.
Next is the other leg.
The skeleton needs feet and hands, so children need to cut off the ends of the Q-tips (the cotton part).
Ask them to tape their feet.
They can cut additional Q-tips to create five fingers for each hand.
Ask them to gently press their fingers so they stick to the black paper.
