There were a lot of spooky things to do with foods and great little ideas for those little helpers to decorate your home with lots of memories! You have to get this one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Halloween fun for the family, September 10, 2004

By	alexxcz "alexxcz" (Baltimore, MD USA) - See all my reviews

There are a number of Halloween books out on the market for decorating, baking and costume making, but this is one of the few that actually has something new in it!

The crafts are clever, but actually look doable wtih things you might already have on hand. The costumes ideas are fun and innovative, the food ideas are also really cute, but not overly-complicated. While some classic ideas never die, this book puts a nice twist on things like "body parts" games.

Of course, the ideas come from the monthly magazine that Disney produces, Family Fun, and if you get the magazine, you'll have already seen alot of these things in print or on their website. Still, the book is nicely layed-out, easy to flip through and a good resource of party and costume ideas for both kids and their grown-ups.

2.0 out of 5 stars SADLY DISAPPOINTED, September 28, 2001

By A Customer

If you own the Disney Family Fun Crafts book and the Family Fun Parties book, you have seen most of the ideas in this book. I was really excited to get this book but there werent many new ideas. :(
