Candy corn is the sweetest shape in Halloween: three stripes, one happy triangle, and a face that is impossible not to smile at. This little pack makes it three ways. First, a big smiling candy corn to fill with scrunched tissue-paper squares. Then a mosaic candy corn to colour in tile by tile. And finally a handprint candy corn — your child’s own hand, turned into the treat itself. Three sheets, one free download, and a Halloween craft that needs nothing fancier than paper, glue and crayons.

Tissue Paper Candy Corn

This is the fiddliest sheet in the pack. Scrunching and gluing small squares is a job for 4-and 5-year-olds with adult help, though 3-year-olds can manage it with bigger squares. Tear or cut tissue paper, or coloured paper, into small squares and glue one into each dashed box: white on top, orange in the middle, yellow at the bottom, just like a real candy corn.

Candy Corn Mosaic

Colour each tile with crayons or markers, or glue small paper squares over them for a real mosaic. This is a calm colour-in sheet, good for 3-year-olds, and a good way to practise staying inside the lines.

Candy Corn Handprint

Colour the hand, or press a real painted handprint onto the outline, to turn your child’s own hand into the treat itself. This is a colour-in sheet too, so it suits 3-year-olds, and it makes a lovely keepsake.

How to print (A4 and US Letter)

Print the PDF single-sided on A4 or US Letter at 100% scale. The pack is free, with no sign-up and no email gate, and it works with crayons or markers, so no craft needs paint. A glue stick and safety scissors cover everything, and tissue paper in white, orange and yellow is the only extra supply. The pack has 3 designs for ages 3 to 5: the mosaic and the handprint are colour-in sheets, good for 3-year-olds, while the tissue-paper candy corn is the fiddliest and suits 4- and 5-year-olds with adult help.
