Kindergarten-Grade 6?From a brief history of the holiday to the information bytes highlighted by a black cat, this paperback is full of detailed ideas, instructions, and illustration to make costumes, games, decorations, and tasty treats. Older children will enjoy reading independently while younger ones will have fun participating in the activities under the guidance of an adult. Black-and-white cartoons lend an appropriately eerie touch or elements of humor. A frightfully fine complement to Robert Friedhoffer's How to Haunt a House for Halloween (Watts, 1989).?Pamela K.

Play ghoulish games like Gobblin, Grab, and enjoy eerie eats like cauldron cocoa. Kids can even make their own haunted house carnival, and you don't have to be a mad scientist to understand the simple yet detailed instructions for every project. Happy haunting!
