    Piggie Pie by Margie Palatini is adorable! When I taught 2nd grade we did a play and the kids loved it!

      I don’t know why I always forget that book – we own it and read it often. Sometimes the most obvious right? Yes great suggestion . Thank you!!

    Our favorite Halloween books are Over in the Hollow, Room on the Broom, Halloween Night, and Frankenstein (a Monsterous Parody – reminds us of Madeline!). I have just reserved several of your book suggestions at the library. Hopefully our list of favorites will grow!

    Adorable ideas! I need to try some of these with my grandkids. We have traditions of setting out a stack of Christmas books during the month of December to read one a day as Christmas nears. But I have not thought of doing it for October until this moment. It would be fun to add the crafts.

    BTW, I’ve written a series of theme related treasure hunt books available at Amazon that you may like to check out. They’re ready- made clues for the children to read to take them to a hidden prize. I play this game with my grandkids for almost every holiday.

    Enjoying reading of any sort.

    This is a great resource – thanks for sharing! My “A Harvest and Halloween Handbook” has Halloween activities, games and a preschool Mother Goose Party. A couple of fun projects for little ones: Scrap crafts – a Jack-o’lantern, bat, spider, toad and cat made with fabric (or scrapbook paper)and buttons. Also an invitation or card that uses a vial of bubbles and a paper chain made like a giant charm bracelet with Halloween cut-outs for charms. Keep up the good work!
