Party tricks and treats

Do you need some new tricks to make your Halloween party and keep your children off the sweeties? Try these for size!

Apple Bobbing – Always a winner with children and even Mums and Dads! Rather than challenge everyone to take as many apples out of the bucket as they can, ask the participants to take as many bites out of the apple as they can!

Eye Balls – Peel some grapes and put into a bowl as a Halloween scary snack!

Vampire’s Blood Punch – Created by using warm apple and orange juice, which is heated in a pan. Add to the mix, a few cloves, some cinnamon and a little ginger, then strain before serving. For extra gore, use Cranberry juice for a rich blood colour and if that’s not enough, a few pomegranate seeds should work nicely!
