Single Moms Celebrating Halloween with Their Children

Good day! October is a special month in the lives of children. They love the candy, decorations and movies that are available this month, but they also love to spend time with their moms.

Single mom families can make October a truly enjoyable month in many ways. Throwing a Halloween party and Trick-or-Treating are wonderful traditions during the month of October.

Safety is important during Halloween. Candy safety rules help to protect our children, as do costume and Trick-or-Treat safety.

One important issue for moms is what to do with all of the candy that our children are coming home with. This article will help.

There are other ways in which single mom families can celebrate this month as well. Doing autumn related projects together is much fun. Spending time in nature is another option. Apple picking is fun, as are corn mazes and haunted houses.

Zowie and I have already decorated for Halloween. I will be spending Halloween in Salem Massachusetts with friends, while Zowie will be home having a horror movie marathon with her cousin. His mom and my mom will be checking in on them. Zowie is 17, and can handle this well.

What special plans do you have for October. Feel free to share your plans, traditions, recipes and decorating and craft ideas in the comments section below.
