Halloween Bucket List Activity 1 -
Go Costume Shopping
My kids LOVE going costume shopping and getting ideas for what they want to dress up as. If you have multiple kids and have saved costumes, be budget conscious and save some money by costume shopping in your own dress up collection at home! You do not have to costume shop at the store! Swap costumes with friends or neighbors can be a great way to save money on costumes for Halloween as well. We love to get our costumes at the beginning of the month so that they get worn a ton before Halloween night for trick or treating. Your family can also do a Halloween costume dinner to and eat dinner with your costume. Take up a notch of Halloween excitement for older children and have them act as their costume in terms of accent and characteristics through the dinner.
