Half-Term activities: Vampire Lollipop Treats By ToucanBox

Tricksy Vampire Lollipop Treats

Mwahahaha! Turn your everyday lollipops into fanged creatures of the night, complete with tiny cute Dracula capes. Wait, we mean terrifying, fearsome Dracula capes. Who are we kidding; these guys are sweet in every sense of the word.

You will need:  

• Lollipops
• Felt
• A pipe cleaner, cut in 4
• Sticky back eyes
• White stickers
• Cellophane
• Scissors  

What to do:

1. 
   Cut the cellophane into rectangles, about 8cm by 12cm.
2. 
   Cut the felt into rectangles about the same size. Cut the edges off of each rectangle to make a trapezoid shape.
3. 
   Take a lolly. Cover it with a piece of cellophane. Give the cellophane a twist at the bottom.
4. 
   Wrap the shorter edge of the felt around the upper stem of the lolly. Pinch it in place. Twist a pipe cleaner around it to hold in place.
5. 
   Add eyes. Cut little fangs out of the white sticker and add them to your vampires!
