HALLOWEEN

My girl Sofia can hardly wait! Nor can I!

Halloween decorations

It is almost a shame that this fun celabration only lasts a day. In the olden days, (when I was young) Norwegians dressed up for “Julebukk”, knocking on doors dressed up in mammas old scarves, singing Christmas carols for treats. Well, this tradition is fading out! The all American Halloween is embraced head on.

HAUNTED HOUSe CRAFTS

For these Halloween decorations I used foam, fabric and paper crafts, images online. The posters are big enough to make just enough impact on the interior and colorful. Excellent for DIY with kids.

It is a fun fine motor skill activity for kids to draw the faces themselves. Each pumpkin is special and full of life!

halloween countdown

The pumpkin looses a tooth for each day remaining, getting funnier and funnier lookin. Kids will love the excitement of getting closer to the big day, practising counting, and mirroring their own tooth loss!
