Howdie all Ghosts and Ghouls!
It’s Melissa,
from My Party Passion, back
again! This time returning with a fun,
easy idea for Halloween Party Goodie Bags!
We ALL know that CANDY wins the pole (little racing humor there) at Halloween time; however, did you ever consider stuffing an
alternative to candy inside those cute bags?
I came up with this idea to make homemade soaps and homemade
crayons to stuff into those bags instead!
Best part – the children were
able to help me!
I saw these cute ice cube trays at the Dollar Tree (last year, but saw them again this year).
I thought they would make a cute crayons or soap for the season.
I went to the local craft store; purchased the raw soap
cubes and the coloring (we did not add
fragrance).
After safely melting the soap in the microwave (follow the directions for safe melting)
the children were able to help with the coloring.
Next step was to pour in the hot colored soap into the
molds. Kids helped with this also.
Now you just have to wait until it hardens, and pop it
out!
Add a cute goodie bag and sticker
and there you have it! These were fun to give to older neighbors,
grandparents and moms of our friends.
For creating the
crayons – collect all those broken crayons (Crayola works the best we have found) remove paper and put pieces of
the broken crayons into the molds. You
can then bake these on a low heat until melted.
Again, wait for them to harden again and pop out. Cute, easy and affordable goodie for the kids
that won’t require a dentist visit !
Hope your Halloween is hauntingly fun! Until next time friend s- Party On!
