This coming Halloween, do you have any plans for your children? Anyone having a party? Each year, my children and I will go to our village hall to celebrate. There is usually a best pumpkin carving competition, a ghost walk around the village, tarot card reading, apple bobbing, smack the rat etc. I didn’t celebrate Halloween until I had my two little monsters! I really enjoy getting into the spirit of the celebration with my children and they do too. Over the years I have bought them plastic buckets to go trick or treating. This year YourDesign.co.uk offered to send me a personalised Trick or Treat bag for review!
Ghoulish glamping this Halloween at Haven
They say that there’s no rest for the wicked, and with October nearly open us, there’s plenty to keep us occupied this Halloween. Which is perfect for our family, given the little ‘terrors’ were off this half-term. The start of the summer looked a little bleak, so we decided to splurge and take the kids on an all-inclusive 5-star break – but with new school clothes and stationery get for September, even the adults were on strict pocket money rules.
Forensics Reconstruction Kit
Have you ever wanted to be a CSI or do you love to watch crime stories and wonder how they solved a crime? One of my Halloween party ideas is to play this Forensics Reconstruction Kit to entertain the older children and adults this Halloween!
Halloween Costume Making at Lichfield Library
Yet again another fantastic half term event Halloween Costume Making organised by the Lichfield District libraries. Today, we made a bat mask, treat box and a cape for Halloween with Sarah Fry from Sew Cool Creations.
Autumn and Halloween Art & Craft
I think most children love doing art and craft as they get to show their creative skills and have fun at the same time. Mr K loves to draw buildings, spider man and treasure maps! Today, he drew a house in autumn in school. As it was so dark and misty out there, he coloured the sky black. Bless him. The weather was not so nice in Lichfield today.
