Halloween Book

This book is great for school crafts and kids' party ideas. I bought this book to use in a school setting and found it useful. The crafts are simple, but when you're working with 15 kids, that is what you want. Loved the lanterns, and they are a nice alternative/addition to carving pumpkins. They look good at adult parties too. The party food was also doable. Easy to make and looks & tastes good. Kids/adults will actually eat it and laugh! Liked the mood and layout, spooky without being gory. It's fun to just look through! Only wish that it was more extensive.

I've always been on the DK books for being a bit on the short side. I know they're aiming them for kids but a little more bang for your buck would be great. That said the book does come with some worthwhile and fairly inexpensive decorations and tasty receipes to make for kids parties. And I do say younger kids, and not quite the 9 - 12 age group that the listing says it's geared to. More like 3 - 7. The Window silhouettes, while not new are well-done and they always make a good display if you have the proper lighting. There's tips on decorating your pumpkin and traditional games like Dangling Donuts. Most of it you may have seen before. Like all DK books it's bright and bold and the photography is first-rate. Not bad.

This is a fun book aimed at the younger set filled with a nice sprinkling of Halloween costumes, recipes, crafts, and party ideas. The ideas are by no means original, but as a mom and Halloween-freak , I found this book to be a good inspiration to cooking up your own ideas. (The monster sandwiches are priceless! )The photos are lovely, the printed varnished pages crisp and bright -- I can practically smell the pumpkin pie when I crack it open.

THIS BOOK IS A GREAT SOURCE BOOK OF HALLOWEEN IDEAS FOR YOUNG AND OLD. IT'S 48 PAGES ARE DIVIDED INTO 3 CATEGORIES : LIGHTS AND DECORATIONS, DRESSING UP, AND PARTY TIME. I JUST ADDED IT TO MY LIBRARY FOR FUTURE HALLOWEEN PARTIES. THE DIRECTIONS ARE CLEAR AND THE PICTURES BRIGHT AND COLORFUL. IF YOU CAN'T FIND ANY IDEAS FOR NEXT YEAR'S PARTY HERE, YOU'RE JUST NOT TRYING. HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

This book's a great way to get ur kids, and you by the way, into the halloween. Ever have those kids who think they aint scared of nothing well this book will change them! But it! Now!
