Torn Paper Halloween Craft
Paper crafts are perfect for making with younger children, they’re low cost, most parents and teachers tend to already have some paper lying around and if something gets broken or spilled, well it’s no big deal.
I’ve shared a lot of free Halloween printables for kids and with this easy Halloween activity I’m sharing how you can use one of our templates to set up a super easy craft to do with your kids.
Tearing paper is a great activity to do with kids and it’s one that my own children have really enjoyed too.
Kids will love this simple Halloween torn paper art project because tearing paper can feel slightly naughty, while grown ups will love it because it’s a fun way to help develop fine motor skills.
If you are making this craft in a classroom or preschool and have to be a little more mindful about time then you could tear up some paper in advance and place it into a bowl for kids to use.
Supplies Needed
- Witches hat template
- White paper or cardstock
- Glue
- Colored Paper

How To Make Your Torn Paper Witches Hat Craft
Start by printing your template onto white printer paper. If you think you’re child is likely to use a lot of glue for this craft (especially if you’re using school glue to make it) then you might want to print it onto cardstock instead to help make it a bit more sturdy.
Next it’s time to get decorating. Cover your witches hat in glue and then tear your colored paper into pieces.
Stick the torn pieces of paper over each part of your template until it’s all colored in.
If you want to make sure that you only get certain colored paper in certain areas – for example getting the black paper on the hat but not on the belt – then only add glue to one part of the template at a time.
Glue the torn colored paper all over the picture until it is fully colored in.
