FREE Halloween Printable Neighbours Note

While we don't follow Halloween quite as traditonally in Australia, it has been becoming more popular in the last few years - and why not, just another reason to celebrate really isnt it ?

The kids ABSOLUTELY love it, and my daughter has wanted to go "trick or treating" for the last 3 years, but we have dressed up at home, handing out lollies to lots of little witches, ghosts, princesses and supermen. This year we are going to hit the streets !

We are borrowing a tradition from our old neighbourhood which was to prepare the neigbours by dropping by a note together with an ORANGE balloon so that the kids will know which houses are happy to have little visitors.....It works really well and helps to gets everyone fired up and into the spooooooky spirit.

This is the note I have designed, and thought it might be nice to share, in case you would like to start something similar up in your neighbourhood. Print out the FREE DOWNLOAD here (A4), and
deliver with a balloon...

Happy Halloween !!!

Trick Or Treat

Time to break out the witch mask again (and yes, it WAS a mask), fill up bowls with lollies (Note to self : Remember to buy lollies - trail mix just didnt cut it last time) and follow my children around the neighbourhood. One of our lovely retailers told me that Halloween was bigger in the party shops than even Christmas - I was amazed to hear that ...

I like these cute Halloween party cupcakes from the Women's Weekly Kids' Party Cakes book for the more creative bakers out there (aka, not me).

I also love the idea of setting up the street to make it "Halloween-Ready" with an orange balloon on the letterboxes of houses who have treats....Read more over here at Love to Celebrate !!

Have a spooky fun time on Saturday everyone xx
