a great recipe for sugar cookie pops and some fun halloween crafts to do with kids!

last week, my best girlfriend and i had this genius idea to get our kiddos together and make some fun stuff to get in the mood for halloween.

not going to lie, we had more fun than they did.  but they loved it, and after hours of eating sugar and laughing, we realized we should be doing stuff like this more often. stuff that is for the kids, to spend time with friends. so fun.

sandy designed and put together these super cute masks and we all wore them all day… the kids thought they were hilarious and wore them the entire time they were making their craft and cookies. we just giggled and took a million pictures, because who can resist…?

so, i prepped cookies {awesome recipe below},

while sandee and the kids painted these little headstones with chalkboard paint. they love painting and actually did a great job on their own.

i found candy eyeballs which made our monster sugar cookies a hit, AND, ready for this: starburst candy corn?! where you been at???

they were so good and we couldn’t stop eating them. {again, who was this activity for? shut up. moms need candy too… }

also, any of these cookies that look legit/have awesome decoration happening, were done by sandee. i have no skill in the art of frosting, she totally does.

if you want to grab these masks to print for yourself you can do so here on sandee’s blog hooray designs
