Pumpkin Bouquets

Halloween Treats - We did fun Halloween/fall treats. I used mini pumpkins and had the girls scoop out the stuff (I cut the top off before the activity) and we put veggie dip inside. Also, Two Ritz crackers with peanut butter in the middle and 4 pretzel sticks on each side for the legs with 2 raisins for eyes. These were spiders...hee, hee.  Broomsticks were made by taking a large pretzel and wrapping a 6 inch piece of "fruit by the foot" around the bottom and cutting the ends for the bristle part. Anyway, it was fun to show them ideas for FHE refreshments. I had the girls put the snacks on a plate and wrapped it with plastic wrap for them to take home. (Idea by Steph Neeley)
 

I have struggled to find a fun Halloween activity for my girls that would help them achieve their goals.  I am doing a Halloween Traditions around the World.  I have done some internet research to find ideas in other countries.  I admit that there are some things I have omitted because they are questionable, but I have focused on those things people do in other countries to honor their dead.  I am going to type out the countries I have researched, and will have each girl take turns reading about those countries.  Here is a good website.  This will be both fun and culturally educational.  I hope it turns out fun for the girls.  We will have snacks and talk about Halloween traditions in their families as well.  (Idea shared by Gwen Steed / ga10232007)
