Halloween Party Ideas: January 2010

Halloween Party Ideas - Hello there folks! Welcome to my latest blog entitled Halloween Party Ideas. Basically in this blog I will show you all the crazy Halloween ideas that you can try out when the best time of the year, that is Halloween comes around! At the time of writing this blog, the year is early 2010 and I really had a great past for last years 2009 Halloween where I went to a fancy dress party. You wont know what I wear but maybe I will reveal it to you later. Anyway by the time Halloween comes again this year or next year 2011 I am sure by then my blog would be more recognised and more people would be reading this. That said I would like to inform you that my blog would focus primarily on the best Halloween costumes you can get for the Halloween parties.

My blog will also mainly talk about coming up with halloween party ideas for kids and halloween party ideas for adults. Of course more people have Halloween parties because of kids and thus it is more important to have kids halloween party ideas. But you should know that there are many naughty adults out there who like to wear sexy Halloween costumes so that they can attract a date or maybe get a girlfriend or boyfriend for Halloween. This I am not surprised and I wouldn’t mind in the future discussing about such sexy costumes as good Halloween party ideas. You can actually check out some of the links to some very good Halloween stores, all found right here on my site.

Let us also not forget some other groups who might be interested in Halloween. Need some halloween party ideas for tweens or teenagers? Well that can be found here on my site too. These individuals are more focussed on creating scary halloween party ideas. I guess they are still young so it is not too damaging to their hearts if they get spooked! Whereas for older people like me, I am so afraid that I will get a heart attack if I am scared too badly! If only I was still in my teenage years then I guess I can dress up in more scary costumes. Such spooky ideas really creeps me out!

If you have a kid though, your focus may be on school or kindergarten halloween party ideas. There may also be parties held at many different places other than at home. Your children may have a Halloween party in school or in class, such can happen for 1st grade, 2nd grade, 3rd grade, 4th grade, 5th grade or even for elementary school, middle school or high school. Having fun with your kids when they are at school celebrating Halloween might not be a bad idea but may even turn out to be a great and easy way to enjoy your Halloween. Of course if your child is still young like in first grade it would be best that you accompany him or her. While the Halloween party can be held at school, most of the children would rather go trick or treating. What happens is that such Halloween parties happen in the day, while at night you can celebrate Halloween at home with them or let them go treat or treating.

Do not forget your younger children who can join in the Halloween fun as well. While your toddler or baby may not even be old enough to go to school or attend first grade at the classroom, that does not mean that they can be left out for Halloween. There are many Halloween party ideas for toddlers out there and these Halloween costumes can fit your babies snugly. You may not even know but they are Halloween costumes for pets too! So if you have got a dog or cat at home and you want them to have some Halloween fun too, go ahead to buy a pet Halloween costume. I am not suggesting that you can use the toddler or baby costumes interchangeably with the pet costumes but that might actually be a crazy idea!

The above preschool halloween party idea might sound like fun, but I guess many people would find it a bit cruel. Halloween costumes meant for pets should remain for pets while those for babies should remain for toddlers. There are many good and cool Halloween party ideas out there anywhere so you need not fret an inch. It is pretty amazing when you see your kids grow up, from being preschoolers to the childrens stage to attending college till they finally grow up and choose their own costumes to wear and parties to attend. That is when they may even decide to leave the family and go out on their own. The best is if you or they decide to hold a Halloween party, do remember to invite them back so that the family can get together. Then maybe even the seniors can join in.

Well there are simply too many awesome Halloween party ideas to list but I have to also caution you that there is no such thing as a free party. Of course you can attend your childrens party in school but that sometimes the school may decide to charge you a fee. There are also some who decide to celebrate in the office with your co-workers, usually the colleagues will pull together a sum of money to have the party, or they might decide to use some funds from the company. Whatever it is, these alternatives are still cheaper than having a party right in your home living room or something. Such is not in my list of cheap Halloween party ideas.

Of course besides the home, some people decide to hold Halloween parties outdoor or outside. There are even Christian groups who come up with Christian halloween party ideas maybe at the church I would say? I know people in the UK do this. Then there are also do who create specific Halloween party themes. The theme can be scary or maybe retro. For the scary types, they can even further detail a theme, such as the type of ghosts or supernatural beings that people should come dressed up in. Maybe it is a vampire theme, or mummy theme or maybe ghost theme. Of course there are can themes which are not too frightening, such as a superhero theme or even a movie theme. What has been very popular is the harry potter getup. These few years twilight halloween party ideas has been very common. Though it has something to do with vampires, this is a much milder theme to consider. Then of course you can have a pirate nite and all the jack sparrows will come!

The are other ideas that will make a good halloween party. It is always necessary to have games and good food. For the games part I guess may people play the game of guessing what costume the person is wearing. While this is quite fun, if the person is unable to guess your costume after many tries that would only mean that you had failed to come up with a recognisable costume. I do know of many people who get their own homemade or handmade halloween costumes and this only shows how creative the person can be. Of course the downside is that nobody can recognise your costume and when this happens you really feel like hiding in the sand.

To round up there are many things you can do for halloween. Some ideas might be expensive, especially if you decide to turn your whole house into a haunted house. This may be a cute and creative idea but you would need the necessary decorations to pull this off. Not to mention you need to clean up big time after the party too. I would suggest a simple, inexpensive halloween party ideas that need not be creepy or gross but allows your whole family to get together, have fun and maybe compare costumes. Add in some halloween recipes to serve to your guests and you are pretty much done.

If you ask me what is the best halloween ideas, it is not possible for me to recommend any. But I did enjoy my daughter’s first birthday halloween party. The theme was superhero and all the kids were dressed in their best crime fighting kungfu fighting outfits. Check out what the kids wore here and stay tuned for more crazy and magnificent amazing halloween costumes and ideas here on the Halloween Party Ideas blog.
