How much fun are Jack o’ Lanterns? I love visiting the pumpkin patch, picking out just the right one and deciding what funny face it will become.
My little sister was the queen of picking the biggest and heaviest pumpkin in the patch and then lugging it back home. But God love her, she’s not the most graceful being and there were more than a few bumps and bruises along the way.
Halloween means candy, pumpkins and a lot of fun for preschool-aged kids.
Since a lot of the things commonly associated with the holiday -- ghosts, jack-o'-lanterns and spiders -- are simple geometric shapes, there are several craft projects easy enough for a preschooler to make.
Remember, Halloween can be fun, not frightful, so when choosing crafts, stick with the silly instead of the scary so that nobody gets upset!
With Halloween quickly approaching, everyone seems to be scrambling to find a great costume before the big day. Some people wear the same costume every year, while others try to spice things up a big by wearing something new to each individual party.
Throwing a big Halloween bash? Creep out kids and adults with some super-spooky (tasty) treats. It's so easy - you can transform everyday snacks and treats with small details and with clever monikers. From sweet and scary to savory and icky, these recipes are scary enough to wake the dead and liven up any holiday gathering!
As a child, the whole concept of Halloween seems too good to be true. You get to wear a costume, knock on strangers’ doors, and ask them for candy. Then, you pretty much eat as much candy as you want for an entire night.
