Friday Round-up: Halloween Edition

Best Halloween Party Goody Bag: Candy-Stuffed Disposable Gloves [1]. We also fill gloves with water, freeze, then add our hand-shaped ice cubes to the punch bowl. (Buzzfeed) 

Best Creepy Kids Movie: Coraline [2] (I’d recommend 8 and up; And don’t forget the book [3] and the graphic novel [4])

Best Trying-to-Be-Scary-But-Actually-Adorable Halloween Treat: Little Cupcake Monster from alllielewisclapp [5]‘s instagram feed.

Best Vintage Halloween Picture Book: Halloween with Morris and Borris [6], by Bernard Wiseman

Best You-Got-Stuck-With-Bringing-The-Healthy-Snack-to-the-Class-Halloween-Party Idea Vampire Snacks [7] from Sheri Silver.

…And Part Two, the Peanut-free Version: Banana Ghosts and Clementine Pumpkins

Best Elegant-Nod-to-Halloween Idea: Affix gross bugs in unexpected places. (Martha Stewart [8])

Best Costume for the Rain: DIY Jellyfish. Procure a bubble umbrella [9] and a bunch of ribbons and call it a day. (That’s my Abby under there.)

Best Twist-on-the-Superhero-Costume-That-Also-Happens-to-be-a-Good-Last-Minute-Option: Clark Kent. There is an official costume here [10], but seems to me you can improvise by grabbing a Superman logo online, then using what you’ve got in the kid’s closet.

Still My Favorite Halloween Baked Good Idea: Graveyard Cake [11] with Doll Limbs from last year.

Have a good weekend!
