Hi everyone:
I was put in charge of my daughter's 4th grade Halloween party and I am ISO ideas for games, activities, snacks, etc... Whatever you have done and any and all ideas are most appreciated!
4th graders are a tough crowd and in that in-between stage where some activities can be considered "lame" I am finding out!
Thank you so much for the help!
Lisa

Our schools do the mummy wrap too and I always mourn the loss of all that wasted TP! LOL, how cheap am I?
Scavenger hunts are fun at that age and they will all enjoy themselves.
At that age you probably want to think about active games rather than passive. Let them burn energy. Hth and wish I had more ideas but am drawing a blank. 8|1|Thank you! Thank you!|sydsmom|rickertcaptkirk@msn.com|16:37:12|10/21/2008|

candy necklaces.. get like misc butterscotch.. tootsie rolls... smarties...peppermint.. strawberrry or misc treats with wrappers like that and let the children pick there candy out to make there own necklace.. just staple the ends of each of the wrappers together... might want to do a candy count for a decent size necklace.. and children so you have good idea of how much candy it might take.. but the big bags of candy are pretty resasonable..
