It is already mid-October which means that the scariest holiday of the year is quickly approaching! Growing up, we always participated in Halloween festivities such as: tick-or-treating, pumpkin carving and class parties. These fun traditions don't have to end just because we "grew up." Well, maybe we are a little too old for trick-or-treating, but that does not mean that we have to stop celebrating this spooky holiday entirely! Get in the Halloween spirit by partaking in these age-appropriate festivities!
CANDY
Maybe we are too old to trick-or-treat, but that doesn't mean that we have to miss out on eating our weight in candy. Go to the grocery store and buy a chocolate variety pack for yourself!
Decorations
Hang streamers or festive lights around your dorm or apartment. I also recommend investing a pumpkin scented candle.
Haunted House
Grab a group of friends and go to a haunted house in your area! Buy tickets online in advance because there are usually discounted tickets available!
DIY Costumes and parties
Go costume shopping with your friends for the Halloween parties you will be attending!
Halloween movies
Did someone say Hocus Pocus?
Spooky Baked goods
Google "Halloween desserts" and try making them in your kitchen! Or, you can always make the take-and-bake Halloween cookies from your local grocery store.
Pumpkin Patch
Go to a pumpkin patch with your friends and pick out the perfect pumpkin. Then carve it into a jack o' lantern or paint it!
