Halloween Treat Recipes (1)
Since I've had kids, I have fallen in LOVE with Halloween. I used to think it was just okay, but doing all of the fun Halloween traditions with them is just magical. I love dressing them up, taking them to parties, going trick or treating, and of course, making fun Halloween treats for kids! They get so excited to help me make the treats too, especially when it's time to add the candy eyeballs.

P.S. If you are into Halloween stuff, make sure you check out these awesome DIY Halloween costumes and this adorable DIY mummy wreath!
