Whether you're hosting a party in the backyard or a spooky old barn, putting up decorations will help get tiny trick-or-treaters in the Halloween spirit. Hang large paper pumpkins from the ceiling or tree branches in your backyard. Draw kooky pumpkin faces on the side using marker.
Put together a festive dessert display. Start by scouring your home for cool containers. Be creative and look for things you might not traditionally serve food in. (Just make sure that you clean it well and that you only serve pre-packaged treats in those containers. Or, line them with Halloween-inspired food-safe papers found at your local craft store.)
Get creative and make Frankenstein, ghost, and jack-o-lantern serving pieces with bowls and candle sticks from the dollar store. Fill each with bright and colorful candies to add color to your monsters' faces!
Not every decoration needs to be new or crafted. Reach into all those Halloween decorations in the basement or garage and select fun and creepy accents to complete the look.
Capture cute moments by using conversation bubble photo props. Everyone will want to take a picture and you'll love sharing all the silly and spooky memories when the night is done!
Don't forget to send little ghosts and goblins home with a Happy Halloween favor. Fill bags with treats, or a few tricks, then seal with a frightfully fun sticker.
