Ghost Waiter

Before the party, paint a scarecrow on a sheet. Cut out the area where the nose is. Keep in mind the height of the children playing the game!
Divide the children into 2 teams. Take one team out into the hall. The other team stays in the classroom. Have the adults hold the sheet up. The first child out in the hall puts their nose through the hole in the sheet. The children in the classroom try to guess who is the scarecrow's nose.

Create 2 eyes, nose, mouth, teeth, stem, and a leaf for each pumpkin. These will be the pieces that the children will place on the pumpkin.
Child picks up a pumpkin piece with a straw (by inhaling) and places it on the paper pumpkin that is on the wall. Tape is already on the paper pumpkin where the piece should be set. Make a relay to see which team can create their pumpkin face first.

Spider Cupcakes
INGREDIENTS
1 (18.25 ounce) package chocolate cake mix
1 pound black shoestring licorice
1 (16 ounce) can white frosting
48 pieces candy corn
48 cinnamon red hot candies
1/4 cup orange decorator sugar
DIRECTIONS
Prepare cupcakes according to package directions. Let cool completely.
Cut licorice into 3 inch sections. Working with one or two cupcakes at a time, so the frosting doesn't set before decorating, frost the cupcakes with the white frosting. Insert licorice pieces into the outer edges of the cupcakes to make the legs of the spider, 3 legs on each side (4 takes up too much space). Place two pieces of candy corn on the front of the cupcake for fangs and use two red hots as eyes. Sprinkle with decorator sugar. Repeat with remaining cupcakes.
Here are several tried and true ideas which are quickly executed:
Sweet potatoes sliced, cut out with a halloween cookie cutter and deep fried, these are delicious and crunchy. Two Tortillas, cover one with cheddar cheese, cover with second one out of which you have cut a jack o lantern face, heat til cheese melts and tortilla crisps a bit. Take 2 or 3 dozen small cupcakes form a full circle cover the whole thing with orange frosting and decorate it to look like a jack o lantern. This makes an excellent centerpiece. I glue a circle of muffin cups down on a cardboard round to get the shape then plop the cupcakes in them to frost.
Hope these are helpful.
Easy Witches' Hat Cookies
Get shortbread cookies, the kind with the chocolate stripes on one side and chocolate covering the other side, and some Hershey's kisses. With a little colored icing, stick the kiss to the middle of the chocolate side, then draw a line and a little bow around the seam: voila! Witch hat!
