Homeschool Halloween

I wanted it to be a fun, different day. Gavyn wanted "different" to mean no school, but alas, if Bryton had to go so do you :). So, I made a Halloween packet of school work, that included Language arts, spelling, math and games. Plus, when their morning chores were done and they were ready to do school they got a Halloween goody bag of candy to eat while doing work. Science was making our pumpkin seeds from our carving last night. They had to figure out the ratio of seeds, salt and water and help clean the goop off the seeds. There were hints of a Halloween party in the afternoon. 

Our party included fun Halloween Oreos, Cheez-its, Pumpkin seeds, carrots and juice. We decorated with our pumpkins and enjoyed our yummy party right when Bryton came in the door. 

Daddy took the kids Trick-or-Treating in a local neighborhood. Makayla left a little early with her friend, Sally Jo, but they met up and all got a TON of candy.

I sat (well laid) in a quiet house and enjoyed the best show of The Sing Off so far.
