Fun Activities to Share With the Family for Halloween
Fall is in full splendor and the weather is turning chilly. Not only does this mean that people are spending more time inside, but it also means that Halloween is right around the corner! And to keep things fun for the whole family, it’s always good to spice things up by mixing old traditions with new ones. From baking spooky treats and enjoying a scary movie marathon to throwing a Halloween costume party, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Read on to learn how to make the most out of this Halloween season.
Halloween-Themed Treats
There are plenty of creative things homeowners can do to make Halloween-themed treats in the comfort of their own home. These can be easy to make and can be a bonding experience for those who help out in the kitchen. One great option is to buy some quick-bake pumpkin spice cinnamon rolls and some white frosting. Once the cinnamon rolls are baked and cooled, make icing spiderwebs on top of them and then attach a candy spider or two!
A spooky twist on an old go-to is the “Poison” Candy Apple. With some black food coloring, it’s easy to make melted caramel turn black. Coated on a nice green apple gives the tasty treat a sinister look that can spice up Halloween celebrations. It’s important to ensure that one has a garbage disposal to use when experimenting in the kitchen. Garbage disposals make life easier and prevent kitchen sink clogs.
Binge Some Scary Movies
Halloween just isn’t Halloween without some scary movies to get the blood pumping and make people jump at shadows. There are plenty of options when it comes to scary movies. There are some classics to choose from, and some newer ones to enjoy.
The classic movie series Halloween is a great starting option for those who enjoy scary slasher films. Jamie Lee Curtis starts off the series, but the newer Rob Zombie versions are great for a disturbing scare too. Newer supernatural movies include The Conjuring series, which critics have lauded as instant classics. For those who like a little more of a family-themed movie, there’s Hocus Pocus and Hubie Halloween that the family can enjoy together.
Host a Halloween Costume Party
Getting together with friends is another great way to celebrate Halloween. By hosting a costume party, homeowners can have fun decorating the house before and enjoying all the fun costumes everyone shows up in. But before hosting a party, homeowners should make sure that their home’s plumbing is ready for the work that it will inevitably do.
Having the home’s kitchen and bathroom checked by a professional plumber is essential before hosting a party. There’s nothing worse than an embarrassing bathroom or kitchen plumbing emergency to stop the good times and ruin everyone’s Halloween. Luckily, plumbers can help prevent a clog in the bathroom sink and can head off emergency toilet repair by ensuring that the plumbing system is healthy and ready to handle a party!
