Last week we began our Halloween Countdown. The kids were so excited to see our countdown go up and they are excited to see what activity is on the schedule for each day.
We kicked off our countdown with a fun game of Halloween Scattergories. This was the first year we have played this game and it was a hit! The kids had so much fun coming up with ideas for their lists.
We made Cotton Ball ghosts. Gwen was happy to have a gluing activity. She would glue anything and everything if we let her.
We made Witch Hat Cookies. Caleb liked this activity. Well, he liked eating it. He loves cookies!!
We made Q-tip Skeletons. I love watching their creative minds work. It's fun now that they are older to give them supplies and basic instructions and to see what they come up with on their own. I loved Tessa's skeleton!
We made some cornflake pumpkin treats.
And of course, we have been having fun making our traditional Halloween dinners. So far, we have made Ghost Pizza, Mummy Braids, and Ghostly Shepherds Pie. We have also played several rounds of Halloween Bingo and Don't Eat Frank.
Lots and lots of Halloween fun going on around here. The big day cannot get here fast enough for these kiddos. Especially Gwen. Her first question every morning is, "Is today Halloween Day?" They can't wait to go Trick or Treating! Hopefully the weather cooperates for us this year.
