MyBlogSpark, GM Cereals, and Target sent me a Halloween gift pack a while back with three boxes of vintage monster-themed cereal including Count Chocula ®, Boo Berry ®, and Franken Berry® Cereal and a $20 Target gift card. They’ve also been kind enough to offer an additional gift pack for one lucky reader.
Happy Halloween!
I don’t really like the ingredient list in the cereals, but my kiddos practically drooled over the boxes which I have to admit are pretty cute. They each got to enjoy a bit for breakfast and made really silly Halloween art, too. We love to decorate for fall and Halloween each year. We hang artwork, carve pumpkins, put out the Halloween table runner. I like the gourds and Indian corn and pumpkins. Decorating for Halloween is a fun family tradition for us.
I’m sure my kiddos would love for me to buy them this cereal each year, too. My mom never bought me sugary cereal as a child and that is one of her traditions that I have kept alive. But I do have to confess how much my children enjoyed their bowl of that cereal. It was pretty funny to watch.
And they spent a long time making their art work, too. It doesn’t hang on the wall very well…but they had really had a good time creating with cereal and have asked me repeatedly to buy them more {for crafting purposes, of course, they claim…} 
The $20 Target gift card they sent is mine, though!! I might challenge myself to see how much food I can get with it. I used to be quite good at pairing Target sales with Target coupons AND manufacturer coupons. Or, I might just go buy myself a very unpractical piece of jewelry. We’ll see how I feel…

We really don’t have any Halloween traditions. Over time, I have been less and less thrilled with Halloween and my kids have gotten older, so we simply don’t do much any more at all. My kids are not so old that they wouldn’t love boxes of sugary ceral, though! I wouldn’t say I never buy sugary cereal, but it’s certainly not a common purchase.
We don’t have anything out of the ordinary that we do for Halloween, but we always celebrate a birthday the day before. It seems that Halloween becomes a week-long endeavor, but it sure is fun!

Trick or treating!
When our kids were young, our family tradition on Halloween was to get the kids in their costumes and go to the homes of my 4 brothers and sisters, and my husband’s 2 sisters. The last two stops were always the 2 sets of grandparents. Many pictures were taken, and pumpkin baskets were overflowing with goodies. It was always a nice time with family, great memories made.

My mom used to sew our Halloween costumes. I don’t sew, but I do encourage the kids to come up with a costume using items we already have. I also pick up costumes cheap at garage sales or 90% off after Halloween as my kids like to dress up throughout the year. So this year my youngest cracked me up by dressing up as Spiderman disguised as Darth Vader. He wore a spidey suit and and Darth Vader mask. He carried a light saber and a Spiderman gift bag. So funny!

I am a new mom, so I am starting a tradition for Halloween. I don’t particularly like the concept of Halloween, so instead of Trick or Treating, we Trick or Treat for Unicef. Much more worthy cause than getting candy for kids.
Well this is our first year in our home and we are just starting our traditions
I love decorating for the holidays so that was a must!
We usually dress up (adults included) and go to the trunk-or-treat at our church. My husband really enjoys decorating our “trunk” / tailgate, and we play spooly music through the car’s CD player.

We don’t really do much for Halloween, but my kids would think this cereal is a big treat, too. We do take our kids to a Reformation Celebration at church and they play games and fill our a passport for all the countries that were key to the Reformation. A little more history and a little less candy works for us.
I must say I was pleasantly to read your review of the cereal. My mother never never allowed my brothers and I to consume sugary cereal either. I also try to limit my children intake of sure because of my own mothers ways.
Halloween is my favorite holiday due to the traditions of my family which I have managed to carry on. Activities such as decorating with classic characters of halloween along with pumpkins and gourds. We also carve pumpkins after which we roast the seeds. Mmmmmm Yummy!We anticipate trick or treat night and the whole family dons costumes.
My mother has passed along the decorations we had as I was growing up to my family. They seem so much cooler than those found in the stores today!
Happy Halloween!

This year we did Halloween a little differently than usual. Usually the girls get dressed up and we trick or treat until their little legs cannot walk another step. This year, we decided to focus less on the candy and more on family time. So the girls hit a couple houses (they gave up before I thought they would!) and we came home and watched a child friendly Halloween movie together. It was the best Halloween by far! Thank you for the giveaway!

Have A Happy & Blessed Thanksgiving!
We take the kids to a REAL pumpkin patch and everybody picks their own pumpkin,all 6 of us. It’s getting harder with each passing year to find a real pumpkin patch – I’m not talking about one of those carnival places that you end up spending $100 on carnival rides, cookies, candy, and whatever else they try to sell you. I want a real pumpkin patch where the pumpkins may still be growing on the vine and the fun is finding the perfect pumpkin, not climbing the rock wall or riding some rickity ride. The kids have lots of fun, and dad always walks away with some oversized pumpkin that takes just about all of us to load it up in the car.
