I used to throw a wonderful halloween birthday party for my 13 year old son.These are some of my experience.

The bobbing for apples was real fun, as well as the hiding things in spaghetti and having them blind folded trying to figure out whats in there.Play scarey music and had this one CD where they had to guess what the scarey sounds where.

For treats I made this one thing my kids never forgot; I bought those cocktail wieners and almond slices, I soaked the almonds in red food coloring and then sliced a small cut in the top of the wieners and placed the almond in the cut and I swear they look just like little fingers my kids said they looked so gross they were scared to try them, I just placed them on a try and had a small bowl of bar-b-que sauce for dipping and placed three of the fingers sticking out of it and lined up more like going into the bowl.

For our punch I made swamp juice with eyeballs. It was green juice from the store mixed with berry juice and sprite and I froze some in trays with blueberries in the middle to make it look like eyeballs were floating in it the color looks gross,But it taste good, and sweet.

You can also make a grave yard fence out of wooden pop-cycle sticks and place it around a tray of french frys and cut grilled cheese sandwiches into tombstone shapes and write different things on them like R.I.P or names and stuff.And deviled eggs but use food coloring to make red lines in the middle part to look like eyes and use olive slices for the eye center.

For dessert I made different cupcakes and some had bugs coming out others looked like spider tops with legs coming out and decorated sugar cookie’s shaped like bats and pumpkins the cupcakes and cookies you can make two days ahead of time and your son can help you its a cool family thing to do we do that every year!

Its really the atmosphere that makes the party I had stuff decorated all through out the house and had bowls of popcorn with spiders and bugs sticking out little goblets you know the ones you can buy at the store with the skeleton fingers on it filled with different things like candy corn and chips with bugs or spider webs, just have fun with it and put spooky stuff where they wouldn’t even think of like even in the bathroom!

Hope this helps.Happy Halloween!
