Halloween may be one of children’s favorite holidays of the year with parents and grandparents are not be far behind! Kids certainly enjoy carved Jack-O’-Lanterns with their eerie glow. In the links below you will find: History, crafts, decorating, educational, costumes, recipes, pumpkin patters and instructions and more.
Cheap is good, free is better! It is always my endeavor to locate no-cost resources for parents but occasionally some websites will charge membership fees or subscription. Ultimately, it is the parent’s responsibility to monitor their child’s online activities.
* Hover your cursor over each link to see more information.
** If you have links to suggest for inclusion or if you find a broken link, please send a message on the Contact Info page.
Costumes should not restrict the free movement of feet, legs, arms or hands. Costumes too baggy or too tight could easily tangle or trip kids.
