How to Make a BOO Kit - by Mama Maggie's Kitchen

My birthday is a few days before Halloween. I’ve had more Halloween birthday parties than I can count. Celebrating this scary time of the year is always fun especially when you give someone special a Halloween BOO Kit. You give someone a bag or bucket of goodies, and they do the same for someone else to keep the party going. This year, I’m BOO-ing my little brother. He is 6’3” and not so little. Andy’s in college, and knowing that he will have to go back to school to BOO someone makes this all the more fun.

Halloween Section at Walmart

Walmart is THE spot to shop for Halloween BOO Kit essentials. I bought some Skittles® Original Fun Size and SNICKERS® Fun Size. Check out this aisle with tons of candy and American Greetings® party bags, stickers, and more. There’s everything and anything under the sun for you to make a great BOO Kit. When Andy was little, he watched Ghostbusters® over and over again. The DVD is available in stores, at Walmart 10/11 and can be preordered on Blu-Ray or DVD now! Maybe we can watch it with my son on his next visit.

These ghostly lollipops are the perfect movie snack for enjoying the new release of Ghostbusters®.

Once you’re done with your Ghost Lollipops and made some SNICKERS® Peanut Butter Cookies, it’s time to assemble the BOO Kit. Put everything inside – cookies, ghost lollipops, more candy, a fun message. I can’t wait to find out who he is going to #BOOItForward to.
