Saturdays in October always mean one thing in our house, Spooktacular Fun!
Last Saturday we went Trunk or Treating with friends from our playgroup. For those who are not familiar with Trunk or Treating it is when a community establishment (church, business, school, etc.) comes together, parks their cars in the parking lot, pops open their trucks, decorates them, and then passes out candy as children walk up to their vehicles. There is often some incentive to decorate the best trunk too!
I have to be honest I do find it a little amusing that from the moment our children can walk we, as parents, preach stranger danger, exclaiming that they should never approach a stranger in a car and to never ever take candy from a stranger in a car. Then what do we do, go Trunk or Treating, haha. Perhaps I am sending mixed messages to our toddler?
After Trunk or Treating we headed home and made some Frankenslim! So much fun, you can read more about it here.
Later that evening we had family movie night and since it was a Spooktacular Saturday we watched Casper!
But the Spooktacular fun did not stop there, while watching the movie we all enjoyed brain cupcakes, yum!
We so enjoyed our Spooktacular Saturday!
Are you looking for something fun to do tomorrow that will make your family’s Saturday Spooktacular? Then check this out….
This looks like so much fun! I don’t think anyone out here in Cal does that, but if I had little ones, I would organize it!
You are awesome! That is so cool that you would organize it if you had little ones.
Moms need to search out safe and fun things for our little ones to do! Maybe someday I’ll have grandkids and that’ll be something we can do together.:)
