Make two small slits in the top of the head and tie a loop of string through them to hang the finished skeleton. SKELETON CHEST Slice down the centre of a jug - opposite the handle. Cut the plastic to make a rib cage. Glue the head and chest together with hot glue. SKELETON SHOULDERS Cut off two jug handles leaving a small collar on each end. Use hot glue to attach them to the chest section. Punch a hole at the outside end of each shoulder. SKELETON WAIST Cut out two spouts, leaving a 1/2 inch collar on each. Hot glue the spouts together. Glue to the bottom of the chest. SKELETON HIPS Use the bottom 4 1/2 inches of a jug. Cut into a pelvic shape. Glue to the bottom of the waist. SKELETON ARMS & LEGS Cut the bone shapes from the jugs. Tie to the shoulders and hips. SKELETON HANDS & FEET Trace the kid's hands and feet. Cut these shapes out of the jugs. Punch holes into the hands and feet and tie them onto the arms and legs. For a greater effect you can paint Mr. Bones a neon color or with "glow in dark" paint so that he will glow as he greets your Halloween guests.
