I’m not usually much of a Halloween person outside of the usual costume-wearing and trick-or-treating but, this year, I’m excited to go all-in with my kids. I’m leaning into finding joy in the little things, so for this spooky season, I’m doing that with touches of whimsical Halloween decor and matching Halloween pajamas for my kiddos.
Though I’m certainly no Martha Stewart, I’m confident even I can tackle some of these fun and easy Halloween crafts and activities with my kids this year, too.
