Idea:

We did this with my son's class.

We did a blind menu of things like Vampire blood (Juice) and all the different sort of items. Gummy worms in Jell-0, rice crispy bars with spider rings called Spider traps, ghost was napkin, pitch fork was a fork. If they didn't order something they got to get it later, but initially they had to figure out how to eat their item if they didn't get the fork. It was real fun for the kids. Most of them picked everything on the list without knowing what it was (brave or what?). Any one that didn't get something got to come back, that way no one had hurt feelings they didn't get this or that. It was cute.

Broomsticks

These are a hit with my daycare children at our Halloween Party. Shred apart pieces of string cheese in long strips. Press them around the end of a pretzel rod and tie a piece of string licorice around it to look like a broom. A healthy alternative and the kids love them!

You can order bread from your local bakery in colors. I would pick orange, don't think black would be too cool - might be though. Then you put peanut butter and jelly on them and cut them out with a Halloween shaped cookie cutter.

idea

This idea is a lot of work but the reward on young children's faces it well worth it. Take an orange and cut the top off like you would a pumpkin. Remove the inside of the orange and put in a bowl to fill pumpkin with later. Now carve a face into the orange and fill with orange or any fruit or pudding. To keep cover of orange secure use a toothpick.

idea

"Spider suckers"

Take a large lollipop (Tootsie Roll Pops are great) and Wrap 4 long black pipe cleaners around the stick beside the sucker. Twist around until secure. Then, extend the pipe cleaners out to make 8 legs. Bend each leg to resemble a spider's leg. Last, glue on wiggly eyes. Makes a great gift for pre-schoolers or trick-or-treaters.

I found this on the Internet. I can't remember where. I adapted it. Frozen witches: Scoop ice cream into muffin cup liners in muffin pan (your choice of ice cream according to what the kids would enjoy.) They suggested green pistachio ice cream for a green head. I used vanilla and they all ate them. I scooped the ice cream balls the night before. I also made the witch hats the night before. Take the fudge striped shortbread cookies or a larger circle dark chocolate cookie, spread with dark chocolate frosting. Place a chocolate pointed oreo cone (I only found them at Albertson's) on top like a witches hat. Let set overnight. Before serving witches, dribble the hard crack chocolate over ice cream ball like hair, leaving a little pool of chocolate on top where you will set the witches hat to harden in place. Put back in freezer. Right before serving make the witches face with two M&M eyes poked in and a candy corn nose. Keep frozen until you serve. I removed them from the paper liner and placed on a Halloween plate and served with a spoon. The original recipe used shoestring licorice for hair. Another thing I make is spiders. Take Oreo cookies. Poke 8 holes around the middle frosting with a round toothpick. Insert small pieces of shoestring licorice for legs and then put on two M&M eyes on top of the cookie with a squirt of frosting or gel.
