So this Halloween, why don’t you and your friend wear matching Halloween Costumes. It’s a great idea and lots of fun. Here are three of the coolest Halloween costumes ideas for two. They are creative, easy and simple. I Hope that they inspire you.

Grapes & Wine: Squash me if you don’t think this is the coolest Halloween Costume for two ever. And wait till you get to the face painting, its loads of fun too.

Grapes, you’ll need to pick a colour – green or purple. And then go shopping for a long-sleeved body suit, extra-thick tights, and a pair of stockings, a ski hat and a big bag of green or purple balloons. Once you’re all dressed in purple, or green, have fun with the face paint. Don’t go near the hair spray though. If you have a little help, you won’t need to spray your hair green. Take the top of a pair of stockings and make yourself a stocking hat. Throw on your felt hat and start attaching your balloons.

Wine, get ready to be in a box. Go pick up a large box from the grocery shop, and a carton of wine. Invite a few friends over, open the wine and get that carton box painted white. Then take the empty wine carton, rinse it out and flatten it! You’ll want to glue the wine carton onto your freshly painted carton box (once it’s properly dried, of course). Or you may pick an easy wine label to duplicate and get out the paintbrushes or use the paint software on your computer and get creative. Then cut out holes for your head and arms. And finally, tape a bag of purple colour liquid to the front of the box. You can always pick up some sparkling ribena, attach a tube, and go around offering free samples.

Bonnie & Clyde: For this Cool Halloween Costume for Two, a trip to the thrift shop is a great idea. Just Google for pictures of the pair, and make sure you take a few pictures of them with you when you shop.

Bonnie will want one blond wig, one black dress, a few longer, loopy necklaces and some fish-net stockings. A stretchy black headband, which can be accessorized with black sequins and white feathers, will go well with it. Put on a fake diamond ring, some high heels and see if you can find one of those old-fashioned ritzy cigarette holders.

Clyde: You need an old-fashioned suit, one black derby hat and a watch chain that gets pinned to the insides of the trouser pockets. Then add a fake moustache. And get ready for your heist.

The Crayola Crayons: This is a charming Halloween Costume for two where you’re unlikely to be asked who you are. Each Crayola needs to do the following: Pick a colour – be it pink, or blue or green, or maybe yellow’s your colour. Then two pairs of thick black stockings, cheap white runners, one white bed sheet, and a few cans of spray paint (black and whatever colour your Crayola is). You’ll also want one box of Crayola crayons so that you can get the logo. Start by making a cone-shaped hat out of cardboard. Then cut your sheet so that it’s about the size of a medium-sized towel. Now spray paint the sheets with the Crayola logo, your shoes and hat.

When you’re ready to get into your Crayola costume, start with the tights. Put one pair of tights on as tights. Use the other pair for the arms. This involves cutting a hole in the tights for your head. You might then want to wear a mini-shirt or jean shorts before you put on the sheet. Now wrap the sheet around you and fasten it at the back with a few safety pins.

Then fasten your hat on with some string, put on some white socks as gloves and your newly spray-painted runners.

Happy Halloween! And enjoy your Cool Halloween Costumes for Two.

And remember, the true test of whether your couple costume is cool or not is if you get separated from your other half at the Halloween Party and people come up to you and say, “Didn’t you come with…?”

Hosting a children’s Christmas party for your child or class? Aah, the fun, the games and the noise, noise, noise! Hosting a Christmas party for a gaggle of kids can be a stressful affair. Children eagerly awaiting Santa’s visit and caught up in the excitement of the holiday season can be a handful but a well thought-out party plan will save the day and your sanity.

Help! Be sure to have help on hand. Other parents or teachers can help keep the kids contained and the party events moving along in orderly fashion. If this is a school party, solicit parent volunteers to bring the refreshments. No need for anything fancy, cookies or cupcakes and punch will please any kid. Keep the decorations simple too. Remember that what goes up must come down. Keeping it simple makes for easy clean-up. String a little tinsel here and there; some red & green balloons and you’ve got instant kid party atmosphere!

There are a number of games that your group will love from the wee little ones to the older kids. Keep the game selection easy by using previously designed games printable from any computer. Here’s a sampling that you might find appropriate for your party:

With glitter, fun shapes, colored makers and Christmas style stickers, the kids are sure to enjoy themselves.

Best Party Games

For a novice event planner, nothing is more daunting than the question, “Mom, can I have a Halloween party?” There are Halloween decorations, costumes, recipes and activities to plan, which can be a big task. To throw the best party, try to keep the group small (10 is ideal) and organize Halloween fun games. Whether you’re planning for a teenager, a pre-teen or a young child, there are a number of fun and affordable games to keep the entertainment rolling!

Halloween party games for younger kids can range from silly Halloween fun and getting-to-know-you games, to spooky ghost story telling and puzzle solving. An easy first game is “The Name Game,” where index cards with monster or Halloween character names written on them are affixed to the back of each guest.

Then the person asks another guest “yes or no” questions until the right answer is guessed. Some kids love “pumpkin golf,” which is a homemade golf game made out of a cardboard ramp, a carved pumpkin with an extremely large smile and a mini-golf set. “Ghost hunter” scavenger hunts always go over well for grade school children.

First wrap lollipops up like ghosts using white tissue paper and a black magic marker. Then hide them around the house and write clues about where they could be. To make it more competitive, create teams, such as “the witches,” “the goblins” or “the werewolves,” and have each team race back to place their lollipops into a bin as they find them, awarding a special prize to the winning team.

Or you may want to put a letter on each ghost that will form ten different Halloween words and award prizes as the kids guess them. You can also turn on “The Monster Mash” and have kids dance like monsters, freezing when the music is stopped. This will definitely have them cackling at the Halloween fun! Check out “Party Game Central” for more do-it-yourself ideas.

If you’d rather buy a few games than make them, then here are some Halloween party suggestions. Little kids will love the “Halloween Role Play Game,” which can be purchased for $4.99 at Oriental Trading and plays up to six kids. The game includes a 10″ spinner, 6 each of 8 assorted character cards, 6 “surprise” cards and instructions.

They’ll spin, pick a card and do an action, such as making bump sounds with their feet, talking like Frankenstein, doing the Monster Mash and acting like they’ve been zapped! Oriental Trading also has “Halloween Bend Game,” which is an awesome seasonal version of Twister that kindergartners to teenagers will love!

“Color Your Own Halloween Bingo” is another great game you can purchase for almost any age. “Inflatable Halloween Limbo” or the “Inflatable Spider Ring Toss Game” are sure to add Halloween fun to your child’s party. Ouija Boards are always creepy Halloween fun for teens. “Halloween Jenga” may be more your speed, with red and black blocks, custom rules and a special glow-in-the-dark die.

If you roll a “pumpkin,” then the direction of play is reversed; roll a “haunted house” and remove any piece or roll a “bat” and you can only remove an orange block. The Harry Potter “Scene It” DVD game is another fun one, testing kids of ages 8 and up with trivia from the Harry Potter movies.

One of the best Halloween Party games for adults is the “murder mystery dinner.” Each party member will receive an advance invitation with instructions on the role they’ll be playing. In your kit, you’ll receive instructions on Halloween recipes to cook, what Halloween decorations to set up and even how to dress.

Usually, character booklets, scripts and CD or DVDs will guide you through the plot to discover whodunnit. A few recommended murder mystery games include: “Lethal Luau Murder Mystery Party Game” with a Hawaiian theme, “A Taste for Wine and Murder” with a Hollywood theme or “A Murder on the Grill” with a summer of 1950s theme. All are from Bepuzzled.
