Halloween – a time for dressing up, trick or treating and ghoulish treats. It’s a fantastic time of the year for our little monsters (and us!) allowing them to show their creative flair playing dress up and really getting into the Halloween spirit.

If you’re stuck for ideas for your upcoming Halloween party or ideas to make Halloween even more fun for your little ones, check out some of our ideas below:

• Ghoulish treats - Create a range of Halloween inspired dishes such as these cupcakes (recipe here), dead man’s fingers (recipe here), snake bites (recipe here) and ghostly marshmallow sticks (recipe here). Get your children involved so they can create their own deliciously disgusting treats!
• Now let’s talk costumes – there’s so many options! Will your child want to be a vampire? A skeleton? Werewolf perhaps? There really is so many options. You could even create your own DIY costume and turn your little monster into a zombie with the use of toilet paper. Don’t be afraid to get creative with your fake blood and face paint- it makes such a difference!
• Pumpkin carving – let your little ones draw their design onto the pumpkin for you to safely carve it out or why not paint your design onto the pumpkin- no carving required! In need of some inspiration? Check out the designs below.

Have a fantastic Halloween whatever you decide to do!
