Or you may be looking to head out somewhere with the family – we have had a look around and got together some fun and different ideas from the net for you to have a go at or visit…

Halloween bubble wands

Get ting a bit bored of the average bubble?!? Well bubbles just got a hell of a lot more interesting (for those of us that particularly like bubbles that it is), with the help of some wire and a cinnamon stick. Really easy to make, just shape the wire around a scary biccie cutter and stick in to a cinnamon stick! Find out more here

Glitter pumpkins

Instead of just carving out a pumpkin this year, get some glitter out and give them a sparkle. These look really different than the normal scary faced veg, with a little bit of twinkle and some bow decor they look really cool and pretty. Find out how to here
