Halloween party for the kids

Gumball eyeballs purchased from Oriental Trading Company on sale
Last night we held a Halloween party for some of the favorite kiddos in our life.  We had such a great time, and the kids had a blast with the games we had ready for them.

 We called it a Halloweenie Roast, so as you can imagine we had hot dogs for roasting, along with marshmallows, witch hats, swamp water (I think called sewer water a couple of times by one of the kiddos), rotten sweets, and eyeballs. Thank you Love Manor for the great labels!  The kids loved it.
Witch hat cookies made from chocolate striped cookies, orange food gel, and kisses
Swamp Water aka Lemon Lime kool-aid, Sprite, and Ginger Ale
The kids had a time pumpkin bowling, throwing bean bags in the bean bag toss, and the hit if the night- ghost hunting!  The kids learned how to track the ghost using fine tracking and scat a.k.a poop ID skills.

Some of the rotten sweets were candy corns.  Here they are atop a flower pot turned ghost

Ghost poop aka mini marshmallows.  We handed out small bags of ghost poop for party favors

Sticks from the yard and spooky spider web decor.  Tombstone bought at dollar store
Bean bag toss.  We cut a large pumpkin from foam core, and painted.  Bean bags were scraps from Resource Warehouse and filled with rice.  Of course I had a coupon for the rice making it super cheap!
Happy Haunting!
