These creepy body parts will keep them guessing when the lights are down...

What you'll need 5 medium-sized bowls Grapes Dried apricots Banana peel Surgical/rubber glove Flour Rubber band Cooked spaghetti 5 small cardboard boxes

What to do

    First, prepare your 'body parts'. Peel the grapes and put them in a bowl for eyeballs. The dried apricots in a bowl feel just like a mummy's ear. Cut a piece of the banana peel into a tongue-sized piece and oil it lightly to create the tongue of a prehistoric creature. Fill the surgical glove with flour, secure the top with a rubber band and place in a bowl to make the hand of a witch.Place the cold cooked spaghetti in a bowl and call it goblin brains. In the side of each cardboard box, cut two round holes just big enough to slip a hand through. Place one bowl of touchy-feelies into each box and seal it. Make a label with the name of the touchy-feely body part for each box. At the party, have each child reach in and feel!
