My Mom bought us a Halloween puppet making kit and Eleanor loves it! I put the glue on and she puts the foam pieces where they go. It's very easy and Eleanor is quite proud of her creations.
Here she is with her puppets and the mice she made at storytime.
I took the kids costume shopping last night, but the selection at Goodwill was very disappointing. Last year Matt and I went there the first Friday of October and there were costumes everywhere, so I was expecting the same thing last night, but instead found one lame rack of costumes. Eleanor was the only one who found something she loved...
Matt and I call it her witch costume, but she calls it her dancing dress.
I took the kids to another Goodwill last night, but we struck out there, too. This is why I wanted to start our shopping early, we still have 27 shopping days before Halloween.
BTW~ Emily found a pair of church shoes last night, so I can check that off my "to buy" list.

My kids are already very into the Halloween spirit as well. Already picked out costumes, decorated the house, and are "practicing" trick-or-treating. ;-)
I love the witch costume - I mean dancing dress! Very cute puppets too (and puppet maker) :)
How fun! I do love this month!
Cute costume! Better luck next week at Good Will!
I am always amazed how fast the Halloween costumes go! Last year I was convinced to start in August:) We are still working on the costumes too!
