Parties, goodies and costumes...Oh, my!

Pumpkin Party
Let's face it! Halloween would not be the same without creating your very own Jack O' Lantern. To make this activity safe for the entire family, It is best to have children create their own designs with a Jack O' Lantern creator tool usually found online. This way, children can print their designs and transfer them onto their pumpkins making it ready for carving. Children should always be under the supervision of an adult during this project for safety. To eliminate seeds and excess flesh inside your pumpkin, use a kitchen or ice cream scooper.
Do your part to ensure a safe and Happy Halloween night!
