Our Halloween Traditions
Halloween is such a fun time of the year and King absolutely loves it. He loves to drive around and look for people’s “spooky’s” that they decorate their homes with. He loves doing “leaf art”, dressing up and so many other things about Halloween time. I love watching him get so excited to dress up and to do fall activities. We have a few things that we do every single year during Halloween time specifically. I am excited to share some of our favorite Halloween traditions with you!
|| HALLOWEEN PAJAMAS ||
This is something that I remember doing as a little girl. My mom/grandma would always get us all Halloween pajamas. It was one of my favorite things about Halloween. Now I love that my mom does that for my littles. King gets so excited to see what Halloween pajamas that Oma bought him!
|| TRUNK OR TREATS ||
This is something that we do with our church, but I know there are also a lot of community ones also. We love going because number one in our neighborhood everyone goes all out in decorating their cars, and secondly it is such easy trick or treating for kids! We have so much fun going and walking around as our little family!
|| CARVING PUMPKINS ||
Some years we carve pumpkins, other years we paint pumpkins it all depends on how much mess I am up for ha. Either way we love making pumpkins for our porch. King loves the characters that stick into the pumpkins and so do I because no mess & we can leave them out on the porch for a lot longer than carved pumpkins.
|| SPOOKY OOKY ||
This is something new we are starting at our house. It is a little spider that comes to your house and spooks your kids if they aren’t being good. King responds really well to things like this (umm Elf on the Shelf is my best friend) so we are going to give it a go and see how it goes for him this year!
|| CARMEL APPLES ||
We love making these at my moms house. They are something that isn’t necessarily kid-friendly but King sure loves to eat them. We love to make them and then package them up to take them to other family members and friends!
We love to carve pumpkins and jump in the leaves its such a fun time of year!
