Pumpkin Party (Preschool through Elementary)

It's that time of year again!  Time for our annual pumpkin party!  Every year we have a party filled with crafts, games and food.  It's open for ages preschool through elementary.  The kids are welcome to come dressed in costume.  This year was a good turnout, with 54 kids and 46 adults.  All of the crafts went over great, except for the monster weaving.  Not sure why, but that happens sometimes.  All of the food was eaten very quickly, we didn't have hardly any left!  Off to plan for next year!

*I found a great deal on a skull cookie cutter, so I had to make skull brownies!  I just cut out the brownies, dusted them with powdered sugar and added candy eyes.  I bought the wrong size icing, so the mouths of the skulls didn't turn the way I wanted.  The tip was way too big.  But they all got eaten very quickly!

Games:

*Musical tombstones.  I was very lucky to find these fabric chair covers on vacation one year.  The kids go crazy over this game!  It's just like musical chairs, and whomever wins will get a prize!

My boss made all of these wonderful wall hangings, which I love!  Don't you?






This year I was Little Miss Muffet.  I wanted to try and wrangle my curly hair into a spider.  Let me tell you, that was not easy!  Kudos to my mom who made this happen!
