The Queens of Mean try to take over again! Today, in Mrs. Rodriguez’s class, we were talking about what we should be for Halloween, until Anna and Joline laughed and said that we are too old for dressing up! Just because we are in junior high doesn’t mean we can’t go trick-or-treating! Dressing up is so fun, and I love sharing candy with my friends. So, Katani, Avery, Isabel, Maeve and I thought we’d do a little of both this year—a little door-to-door trick or treating, AND plan a super fun Halloween scavenger hunt! That way, we get the best of both Halloween worlds!
First, the BSG and I made a list of things that we could find while we were out trick-or-treating—like a broom, candy corn, a black cat, or an un-carved pumpkin. Then, Halloween night, we’ll try to check all of those things off the list as we walk our trick or treating route! I can’t wait to see everyone enjoying Halloween. Katani is going to make the BSG's costumes but we are all going to help. We called a special meeting in the tower and agreed to do a Wizard of OZ theme (it was really Maeve’s idea of course). I am the scarecrow, Maeve is Dorothy, Katani is the tin man, Avery is the lion, and our little Mr. Martay is Toto! Oh, and Isabel is Glinda, the good witch.
Maeve typed out all the items on scavenger hunt list on her computer, and here is what we came up with so far:
1. Black cat
2. Cornstalks
3. Broom
4. Candy Corn
5. Candy apple
6. Two un-carved pumpkins
7. Scarecrow (besides my costume!)
8. A witch costume
9. A ghost costume
10. A pirate costume
I am so glad that I stuck up for Halloween, especially since my friends helped me do it. You can even do a scavenger hunt of your own in your neighborhood! Make up your own list, and try it out with your friends!
you tell us ...
