This year, in addition to giving children candy, we have some mini Play-Doh containers to give away. Remembering all the fun times I had playing with that colored dough as a child (and as an adult), I figured these would be valued much higher than unmemorable, gone-in-a-second, character-less candy.

Last year, we dressed up our daughter as Piglet. It was a great costume, but spending $24 on a worn-once costume may not have been the best use of our money. This year, my wife took the leftover material from her murder mystery costume and made my daughter a poodle skirt to match hers. Now I have two 50’s rocker girls in my house!

Tonight’s Halloween should be fun and I know there will be hundreds of children walking down my street. I just hope we have enough candy to last the night!

When you’re done passing out candy this evening, take a look at a few of these great articles from this week:

Have a happy Halloween and enjoy your weekend!

Hey, thanks for the mention … and top billing too!
My son (age 9) has a friend that is crazy about golf, This year, since his friend is going to be a golfer for Halloween, Ryan decided to be his buddy’s caddy. All we did was tie some white aprons together and used some fabric paint we had on hand to write on them. Sling a bag over his shoulder and voila! It really looks great!

Thanks again and have a Happy Halloween!

I love this idea and am going to file it away for next year. At least I won’t be tempted to eat the leftovers!
