Kids Halloween Gift Basket Ideas

Halloween is our youngest son’s favorite holiday. He plans his costume months in advance, has dress rehearsals, and serious discussion with his fellow Halloween loving friends.  I am not exaggerating one iota, Halloween is his thing.  I have no idea where or when he got this Haloween costume gene but it is such a fantastic joy to watch him be so excited this colorful, fun-filled holidays.

To celebrate the joy of Halloween each year we give our kids Halloween gift baskets. These baskets are not brimming with sugary treats. Heaven knows, they get enough of that stuff from their grandparents and trick or treating.  We do fill the baskets with themed books, pajamas, sticker books, glow in the dark bracelets, and all kinds of fun Halloween goodies.

Kids Halloween gift baskets are so much fun to make and give. The biggest plus is you can fill a pretty good basket for your kids at Target, Walmart, or the Dollar store for very little money. I try to put one thing that I know they will love, usually a good book.  They love their Halloween pajamas, they start wearing them the minute they receive their gift basket.

The kids never know when their Halloween Bucket will arrive, yes I said bucket. My oldest started calling them buckets because they have a handle, and the name just stuck.

And now, that my oldest has his own little Halloween baby, I have one more little one to create a Halloween Fun Bucket for each year!
