October 24, 2018 By Hint Mama

It’s hard to believe that Halloween is nearly here. October 31st is just a week away, and if you’re like me, you’re right in the middle of perfecting those decorations and costumes. To help you, I’ve gathered together my top Halloween hints below, in order of popularity, as well as a bonus new Halloween hint.

  1. What to Do if You Run Out of Halloween Candy
  2. What to Do When Your Child Rejects a Halloween Costume
  3. 7 Budget-Friendly Halloween Hacks
  4. Reuse Halloween Costumes
  5. 3 Ways to Save Money on Store-Bought Halloween Costumes
  6. 3 Tricks for Curtailing Your Child’s Candy Consumption This Halloween
  7. 4 Ways to Make Your Halloween Treats Last
  8. 7 Ideas for Useful Halloween Costumes
  9. An Easy & Inexpensive Way to Decorate for Halloween

Looking for more? Here’s a bonus Halloween hint: Save all that Halloween art your child brings home, or at least a few special pieces. Why? The works make great, free Halloween decorations. I’ve saved a number of Halloween projects my children have made over the years, and now I hang them in our family room every October as we get in the Halloween spirit. See the picture below.

My kids seem to enjoy looking at the pieces and figuring out who made what and when. What’s your best Halloween hint? Share it below, and Happy Halloween.

    I love all the hints. I am binge-reading all of your hints to absorb into my daily life! I have 5 children ages 1,2,5,6, and 9. I am (mostly) out of the rough nights’ stage and now it’s more of a “hurricane maintenance” mode as they continually rearrange and hide all the things. Halloween is split with the older kids running door to door and the little’s trying not to stumble as they shuffle up the walk to say “tick oh tee” and then beam ear to ear when they get a candy. I will be using your hints across the board! Here is 1 for you: Have a reason to make rice crispy treats? A quick way to move large volumes of candy is to mix them into a batch of rice crispy treats! As for the types of candy, I recommend reeses, snickers, twix, kitcat, 3 musketeers, milky way, whoppers etc. To each their own though;)
