Happy Halloween!!!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN MOMSTOWN MAMAS!!!!!!!

Finally, after lots of anticipation by the kids, (not me!), Halloween is here!

We spent the morning in momstown style having fun and celebrating the season.

The kids came out in their cute costumes and had the chance to do some Halloweeen activities thanks to the hospitality of one our memebers.

Cookie decorating was a blast! One mama made some awesome Halloween cookies for the kids to decorate and eat!!

Then we painted pumpkins! The kids had fun in the paint... as usual! The pumpkins were the perfect size for our kiddies to have fun with!

And finally, what day of celebration is complete without a snack!

HAPPY TRICK OR TREATING EVERYONE!!!!!

Pumpkin Play Date!

This weeks play date was all about pumpkins!!

The kids are so excited about halloween as many of them actually understand it this year for the first time!

We decided to do an easy but fun craft, mosaic pumpkins!!



The kiddies got a paper plate, a piece of orange construction paper and 2 eyes and a mouth made from black construction paper.

First step, rip the paper into small pieces! The kids thought this was great that they actually got to rip up the paper!



Next step, glue the orange pieces on the plate! Another favorite for the kids... GLUE! Kids just love glue for some odd reason!

Once their plates were covered in orange they were able to add on their eyes and mouth and VOILA! A pumpkin!!!



A great pumpkin story read by my oldest (it was a PA day!) and then some songs and dancing and it was a perfect morning!

Stll to come this week as we celebrate all the fun of halloween, Decorating Dudes and Divas, momstown Halloween Fun Day at Wendy's and of course.... our BOO BASH!!!!!!!

OOEEY GOOEY PUMPKINS!

We had our very first Mini Chefs group and it was so much fun!

With our first group taking place so close to Halloween it was only fitting do a Halloween recipe!

We had a week full of rain and cold weather and getting ooey gooey sticky while having fun was just what we all needed!

I chose Ooeey Gooeey Pumpkins after seeing what fun the momstown Oakville moms had with their moms and kiddies doing this same recipe.

Everyone loves Rice Krispie Treats, so we used this as the base to make our pumpkins! The kids helped stir up the GOO and count in the cups of rice krispies.

We scooped out big gobs of treat and the kids got down the making them into balls for the pumpkins!


Wih some bits and bites and candies, the kids got down to making their pumpkin faces!

It was so fun to watch them all so sticky and messy and sneaking nibbles and eating their candies!

I have to admit this was a great one to do just for the clean up, who doesn't love licking the bowl after making rice krispie treats!


I am looking forward to all the Halloween fun still come this week!

October is Busy!!

Boy has October been a busy month!!! It's hard to believe their is just over a week left of October!


The month started off full of Fall and Thanksgiving Fun! Our little ones gathered in the cozy kitchen of one of our members home and made "hand" crafted turkey pictures! Painting with kids is always fun, and always brings out the giggles and smiles!

momstown mamas have discovered a new event that is lots of fun for moms with kids under 12 months! This week we held our 3rd Baby Babble get together and as always
the kids were fun to watch! The moms got some chit chat in while the kids played. Its amazing to watch a bunch of babes interact with each other and see how they grow and play together.

We are all looking forward to a great time next week as we lead into Halloween! Monday the mamas and tots will be heading to the farm for some pumpkin picking! Some Halloween crafts will precede our main event this month, our Annual Boo Bash!!

We are all super excited for this years party! Every year we have a great time seeing all the kids dressed up and enjoying some play and crafts and of course great food! This year is extra special with our party being sponsored by Fisher Price!!!

It's a great time to join momstown!! Not a member? What are you waiting for!!! Join today!!!
