Non-Scary Halloween Party!
Halloween is in 4 days! Holy
macaroni that sure did creep up quick! Maybe you had agreed to be the host
house for all the trick or treat activities for your kids and their friends, or
the whole neighborhood! (been there done that!) You may have all different ages
of kids, and there may be some that are too young to be out in the dark running
around the neighborhood. That’s fine! They can have a blast at home! (Even make
the kids who do go out and trick or treat jealous!)
The biggest part of Halloween is the
costume. By this point hopefully your kiddos have a costume ready to go, or
maybe they have a football jersey they are going to where, or a princess dress.
Whatever the costume, the next most important item on the list is to get a
candy bag! The best thing you can do is get some washable markers, and some
plain old bags and let the kids go at them! Put their names on the bags though,
no need to have fights later if one kid gets more candy.
Next, the issue I see this year with
Halloween is, its on a Monday! Blech! So you will need a quick easy dinner, of
course it still needs to be festive! So, mummy hotdogs! These are so simple to
make and are sure to be a hit with everyone, you take hotdogs and wrap them to
look like bandages with Pillsbury crescent roll dough, super quick and easy.
Bake at 350 for 15 or so minutes (watch for the dough to turn a golden brown
color and that should tell you when they are done!)
I don’t usually worry about a
desert, especially when most of the kids are running out the door right once
its dark in order to go get all the candy they can before its time to come home
to bed! (and they end up eating 90% of it anyways!) So, let them run out the
door, the young kids who are at home can play all sorts of games in order to
win candy and fill up their baskets!
There are so many games that kids
can play, they all have so little work to them that you can set up 3 or 4 in a
few hours and entertain the kids all night! Check out my pinterest to see all
sorts of fun kids games for your party!
Look forward to sharing more holiday
crafts, ideas, and DIY’s now that I have some free time and lots of time on
pinterest!
