## How to make it

1. **Print the template.** Print the PDF on A4 paper at 100% scale (choose "actual size", not "fit to page"). Thicker paper works best.
2. **Cut it out.** Cut out every piece. Where a piece has a grey rim of glue tabs, cut along the outer edge of the rim. Ask a grown-up to help younger children with the scissors.
3. **Fold the tabs.** Fold along the dashed lines so the grey glue tabs stand up.
4. **Glue it together.** Put glue on the grey tabs and stick the pieces together, one side at a time. Leave one side open.
5. **Stuff and close.** Fill it with cotton wool until it is soft and squeezy, then glue the last side closed.

## What you need

- A4 paper (thicker works best)
- Cotton wool for stuffing
- Glue or tape
- Scissors and a printer

## Ideas to make it your own

- Keep it Milk white for a classic ghost, or try Mint for a glow-in-the-dark look.
- Add a Candy corn or Moon sticker for a spooky-cute touch.
- Give it a name with the Name tab, like "Boo" or "Casper-ish".
