The winner of the Halloween Bash tickets is Kylie!  Thanks everybody!

You may have seen me on Channel 13 this morning discussing Halloween.

Here are some of trick or treating alternatives I discussed:

Neighborhood family style party- team up with other families. One family hosts the party at their house, one provides entertainment, one provides goody bags, and so on.

Piñata party- load up a piñata with non-candy goodies. Look at Party City for lots oF items to stuff it. Kids will have a blast breaking it open!

Baking party- get some kids together and decorate cookies, brownies, and more. Kids still think they are getting treats.

Movie night- stay in and watch some scary movies.

Halloween Bash- today at Afrim’s from 11-2. Plenty of activities!

Go to someone else’s house and hand out candy while judging their costumes.
