So the kids and I all are struggling w/congestion issues, so going out Trick or Treating has been kinda up in the air. Well Hurricane Sandy sealed the deal. Way too cold/windy/rainy to go out. So what to do?
Well, here is how the monsters and I celebrated!!
While Skylar was at school, I had to quickly figure out what we had on hand to create our lil "party".
Chairs and blankets generally spell fun, right? Ok now we have a great spot for watching a movie! Hmmm.. what else?
Activities
*watch a movie
*carve a pumpkin
*roast the seeds
*make a ghost panting
Menu
*orange pop (give a cute name)
*Zombie Brains (pasta)
*Monster Munch Balls (orange colored/flavored drizzled w/chocolate)
that's the plan!
ETA: ok, so the plan actually went pretty well! Here's our night!
 |
Dinner: Dyed green wheat noodles, marinara sauce and boiled eggs. (removed the eggs before we ate, lol) |
 |

Sophie's Pumpkin Carving Session |
 |
She was confused... |
 |
I quickly grabbed her Binky... she's a "straight to the mouth" kinda kid |
 |
cold, squishy, slimy |
 |
GREAT sensory project though :) |
 |
It even stretched! |
 |
Then I put her inside. She wasn't a fan, too cold |
 |
Next came a pumpkin seed craft. (kids didn't want to eat them, lol) |
 |
what goes inside a pumpkin? |
 |
Seeds of course! |
 |
He counted as he did this!! Love when he does that |
 |
Finished Pumpkin |
 |
Next he just wanted to play in the seeds |
 |
So I took a few pics of Sophie while he played |

Mum Mum face |
 |
Skylar's art |

I said "add at least 5 seeds" (Washing and roasting them was too time consuming, lol, I wanted them to do SOMETHING with them) |
 |
Her finished project |
