Are you planning a Halloween party this year? The first step is to factor in the age of the party-goers. If your target audience is kids, ensure your party won’t be frightening or boring. Add age-appropriate tricks and treats to make it a fun event.
Choose a good theme like a “Classic Monsters” or “Haunted Mansion” to plan your decorations, costumes and menu. For games, stick with the classics like apple bobbing, where kids use their mouths to catch apples floating in the water, or mummy wrap, where kids wrap their teammates up in streamers or toilet paper. And remember to reward your little guests for their costume choices, especially if they made their own. Check out this list for Halloween looks that are trending this year.
