Printable Halloween Stencils

There is no need to go out and buy a stencil kit for carving your pumpkin.

Here is a list of free printable stencils, featuring some of your child’s favorite characters:

Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella Stencils from Huggies (We are doing the castle)

More Disney Pumpkin Stencils Winnie the Pooh, Tigger Mickey, Minnie, Snow White, & Goofy

Safety is most important when carving your pumpkin. Have your little one help you will the scooping so they do not feel left out when you are doing the actual carving. Use battery powered “candles” to prevent burns and fires. We use the Glade Wisp Flameless Candles in our big pumpkin. You can take these out of their glass container and still use them in smaller pumpkins. When Halloween is over, you still have a nice smelling flameless candle to use in your home.
