Cute & Festive Activity:
Pumpkin
Golf:
Object of Game: Hit the golf ball into
a pumpkin.
Preparation: Carve out a pumpkin. Make the mouth extra large.
Build a cardboard ramp about one to two feet side from the ground
to the bottom of the pumpkin's mouth. You will probably need some
support under the cardboard. Tape the ramp to the floor for stability.
Mark a starting point a few feet from the start of the ramp. The
older the kids, the farther away they should putt.
Playing the Game: Each player gets to hit a golf ball three
times. Each time the ball goes into the pumpkin, the player wins
a piece of candy. From Pumpkin Nook's Halloween

Consider having a Fortune Teller at your Halloween Event! Set up a gypsy style tent, colorful, with a table inside - use sheets or fabric hung from the ceiling indoors, any private location with seating for 2 or 3. Decorate with yards of fabric, pillows, jewels, mood lighting, electric candles only (be careful). You can hire a professional fortune teller, or if you have someone who enjoys it, let them use their preferred method of foretelling the future. It's always fun to have them dress as a gypsy. Sometimes its fun just to tell people something about themselves, rather than trying to predict the future. Runes, Tea leaves, Astrology (zodiac), Numerology, Palm reading, and of course Tarot - are methods that can be used. Keep the readings lighthearted and fun ... Dreadwilliam's "The Fool's Tarot" is the only comedy tarot deck I've ever seen. Every card is brightly colored and humorous. A funny reference guide is also available... these readings are really easy for anyone. |

"Pumpkin Carving Party"
During a recent online
chat with Snoo, she told me how she's having her 2nd annual
carving party this year,
for her 10 year old daughter and about 5 friends....
I thought, what an adorable idea! It's a perfect pre-halloween party
theme, without the hassle of costumes.
Make
sure you have plenty of pumpkins for everyone, and all the tools
necessary.
Include
scrapers, spoons of all sizes, varied knives (depending on
the ages of your guests), chisels,
straight pins, nails, construction paper, yarn, spaghetti works
well for spiky hair - uncooked of course,
Keep the mess in check with plenty of Halloween plastic tablecloths on the tables and floor.
Provide plenty of bowls or trash bags to hold the stringy "guts".
If anyone's inspired, have them clean and roast the seeds from all the pumpkins during the party.
Simple Halloween decor is all you need - the real star of the party is the jack o'lanterns!
Encourage
children to wear washable clothes,
no costumes required for this simple halloween-time party
The
carved pumpkins are perfect favors for everyone to take home,
or to plan the party on a budget, have everyone B.Y.O.P. Bring
your own pumpkin!
Or, provide all the pumpkins, let them carve two apeice, keep one
afterward let them take the other home,
and require that the guests stop by Halloween night to see their
creation on display in your yard.
How's that for some free-halloween-labor trickery? ~ nancy

The scariest movies for Halloween - Watch now!
A Note from Nancy - I'm not a big horror movie fan, but I do have a few favorites. The following are somewhat more funny than scary, but with plenty of gore to go with your halloween movie-night theme! Slither - Having written for the jubilant trash-mongers at Troma Films before scripting 2004's well-received remake of Dawn of the Dead, writer-director James Gunn crafted this hilarious splatter-fest as an homage to the comically violent horror films of the 1970s and '80s, and he gets it just right with a low-budget look, perfect casting, grisly make-up effects and judicious use of CGI gore.Cannibal! The Musical is the funniest "cannibal" movie you will ever see.
A college film from the creators of South Park!!
.....only a little gore, but.....really really really funny.... a great party movie for adults, and the commentary track is hilarious as well!
