Halloween Party Day!

Costumes - The kiddos looked so great in all their costumes!


Chucking Pumpkins - Catapults - Oh!  This was so much fun!  We had pumpkins and pom poms flying all over the place! 

I got the building idea for these catapults on this blog:  Here!

Smashing Ghosts - This was also quite fun!

I saw this fun idea on this blog:  Here!

Painted Pumpkins - The kiddos added faces to their pumpkins they painted on Friday.

 

Halloween Party!

I love it when the kiddos come all dressed up in their costumes!  So darn cute!

The kiddos each bring something to share (treat or healthy).  I always like to make monster eyes (for the pupil I used a toothpick to put some black food coloring on the m&m) and boo mix.

Trick or Treat Goodie Bags - I always love putting these together.  This year I made green play dough with spiders in it and some glitter.

Then I put together a few pieces of candy, pretzels and some goofy things like teeth, spider rings and spooky eye patches.

We played Bingo, had a dance-off, ate too much sugary treats and had oodles of fun!

Halloween Party!

It's party time!

For the kiddo's gift bags I gathered various Halloween things from Walmart, the Dollar Store, and Target.  (You know:  spider rings, pumpkin straws ... those sorts of things.)  I wanted to steer clear of candy, since the kiddos will get plenty tonight. 

Also, I made monster slime for each kiddo.  (The Elmer's glue and borax concoction, see recipe in next post).  I just added some googly eyes to it and popped it into a condiment cup.  Cute, huh!




Next on to the food at the party... most of the following ideas I pulled from pinterest.  (Love that site, slightly addicted.)

Mummy Juice Boxes - (4 for $1 at the Dollar Store), crepe paper and googly eyes.

Jack-O-Lantern Clementines - just need a sharpie or two.

Edible Bones - pretzel sticks with mini marshmallows on the ends, dip in white almond bark.

Halloween Party Mix - Golden Graham cereal (monster scabs), candy corn (goblin teeth), mini marshmallow (ghost poop), and milk chocolate chips (witch worts).  Very tasty!

Now a few party activities ...

Ghost Bowling - just painted tp tubes and a nerf ball.

Tp Monsters - tp tubes, googly eyes, crepe paper, glue.
