A 1st Grade Halloween

So I emailed Jeremy's teacher a few days before the Halloween party and asked if she needed help. Turns out she did, so I headed to the elementary school on Friday for some fall festivities. There was Witch Tossing, Cookie Decorating, Halloween Bingo, and some Haunted Muscial Chairs.

By the way, Jeremy has a serious crush on the girl in the purple. I can't seem to remember her name though.

Musical Chairs is completely lost on Jeremy. He was the first one out, mostly because he wasn't quite sure how to play. Poor guy.

Then is was on to the the trick or treating. Each kid that brought a treat would go around to each desk and hand out the goodies, they even gave some to us, the helpers. Score!

That night the Parent Board was having the annual Halloween Carnival. I was scheduled to work the first shift at one of the games. That place was a mad house. It was pretty popular. So, as I was working the game, Matt took the kids around to some of the different games. The hit of the night was the Haunted House. The kids kept saying that it was "Fr-fr-freaky."
First up, the fishing pond.

Their last stop was the Haunted House and then it was on to Tyler's Birthday party (which I am sure Jenny will blog about, right little sis?). It was a fun night and the kids had a blast.

This looks like a lot of fun for the kids. Good way to have something for the kids to do. Creative as well.

Now I might go for a fun party like this for Halloween. Next year when Ammon is in school we will get to do the carnivals. That would be enough for me.
