Hey everyone!! I hope you’re all having a great fall season so far! We’ve been busy at Gala Kids Store getting everything ready for our winter collection that will be released soon! More on that later. 

 Today, I wanted to reach out and talk about the spookiest, funniest party of the year! Yeap, I’m talking about Halloween! 

As a mother of a little girl, I’ve been looking into ideas and tips on how to make the most out of a Halloween party for children and I wanted to share with you my what I’ve found to be the most important, fundamental points to consider when throwing your private Halloween party. 

 1. Costumes are key for a great Halloween party. Remind guests of the importance to dress up for the venue; however, remember its a kid’s party and they don’t have to dress up in a horrifying, scary way. Kids look pretty fun wearing home-made pumpkin dress, or dressing up as tortoises, doggies, cats, fairies or even their favorite tv-show characters like Micky and Minnie Mouse! 

 2. I believe that carved Pumpkins are widely related to Halloween pretty much anywhere. Don’t forget to stage them as props around your venue, house, patio, etc. You can find this at any convenience store, or huge wholesalers! They add a great mood and ambiance to your party while not being a very expensive item!

3. Spider webs are also a must on any spooky party. You DIY webs by grabbing a pack of cotton and breaking it down in slim portions and placing it all over the place. Remember to add small, black, plastic spiders to the webs to make it look real! Spiders can be found for cheap in the nearest party store!

4. Now into colors. Halloween’s colors are Black, Orange, and Purple. Make sure your tabletops are wearing their colors skirts. Also, tabletops, accents, and props must match this color palette. It’s all in the small details.

5. Candy is a must on any children’s party. Convenience stores wholesale a great mix-up of candies with Halloween Wrapping starting by the end of September. Make sure you get yours in time as they tend to run out as the days go by.

6. Make sure the party stays entertained by having your kids and guest involved in any sort of Halloween activities. My personal favorites are wrapping a guest up like a mommy. Other all-time favorite is decorating carved pumpkins, or even carving it themselves. The latter can be a little expensive but it's bound to keep all your guests interested for a long time.

7. The party turned out to be great, now its time to wrap it up. Remember the old days where we used to tell scary stories? Well, its 2019 and nobody does that anymore, but you can set up the big screen with a children’s scary movie like Casper, Hotel Transylvania and more! Check out IMDB.com for more on this. 

Remember, in the end, its all about having fun with our friends and loved ones. If you liked these 7 tips on making the best Halloween party, share this with your friends and family on social media and subscribe to our blog.
