Halloween is so fun. It is the first big holiday that kids get to celebrate during the school year and before Thanksgiving and Christmas. Although some decorations and costumes can be very frightening, kids love the idea of being a little scared. These painted rock zombies are definitely on the silly side and lots of fun for kids to make. Whether you are a teacher looking for a craft for your students, or a parent looking for a way to spend time together, these are perfect.
I know that you will have lots of fun making these painted rock zombies.
