Halloween Party Ideas

I know it is only the beginning of September, but many of you may be planning Halloween parties, as we are only several weeks from this spookilooshish holida, MY FAVORITE!

Of course, most holidays are my favorite … still, there is something about the Autumnal season — the black and orange colors, the trick and treating, the pumpkin carving…. I am already finding the most amazing resources for you to access when you are planning during the upcoming weeks. Before you start, read seven tips for a successful Halloween party and check out our video of great Halloween party ideas.

If you are throwing a kids’ Halloween party at home or at an outside venue and are looking for Halloween decorations, Halloween crafts, activities (a treasure hunt, themes), spooky Halloween food or goodies, I have compiled a set of resources for you.

FamilyFun is also showcasing their Halloween Sneak Peak which is definitely worth perusing for more creepy food ideas, costumes, crafts, and printables.

Pumpkin Nook has a full assortment of Halloween Games for you to choose from for a variety of ages. I especially like the Brain Jello Mold!

Frightfully fun Halloween Decorations from OTC! Oriental Trading Company also has a HUGE selection of everything you might need: candy, giveways, games, and spooky craft ideas.

Celebrate Express has some great halloween partyware, that ranges from fun to spooky.

A great resource for Halloween that you might not think of is Amazon.  They have some great decorations that I haven’t seen anywhere else.  Where else can you get a pumpkin carving kit that will represent your favorite sports team?

And don’t forget your costumes!  If you are planning on buying this year, versus making your own, shop early.  The most popular themes will sell out early.

For girls …

… and for boys.

Halloween is just huge in the USA. If you are logging on from around the globe, perhaps you would also like to partake in some of the fun, and start some of your own traditions. It’s not too early to plan. I hope this finds you creepily along your way!
