Hi Everyone! Have you done your BOO’ing yet? Today I am sharing an easy BOO bucket tutorial so there is still plenty of time for you to take on this great Halloween tradition. This is our family’s most favorite Halloween activity. I actually think my kids enjoy it more than Halloween night. I love it too because it teaches them a great lesson- giving secretly to others for just the joy of it. Think of it as BOO’ing it forward. Since our nights are filled with sports and homework, I was on the look out for a quick and easy way to put together an awesome BOO bucket.
I found everything I needed at Walmart. Of course, a BOO kit always includes candy. It is Halloween after all:) I picked up Mars Mixed Minis 52 oz. and Chocolate Mix Fun Size. They include my all time favorites – M&M’s®, SNICKERS®, TWIX®, MILKY WAY®, 3 MUSKETEERS® . I like mixing up bite size and snack size because sometimes you need just a little and sometime a little more. I also like including mini soda cans in our buckets because it’s such a treat for kids. 7UP® and Sunkist® make the perfect 8 ounce size 6 packs in a Halloween can. Find all of these in the seasonal and soda aisles. Right now you can save $1.00 on TWO (2) 2L or 6pk 8oz cans of any flavor Sunkist® Soda, 7UP®, Canada Dry®, A&W®, Squirt®, or Sun Drop® by clicking here
Find a container to hold all your goodies. I made this easy BOO Bucket by gluing googly eyes to a plain white bucket. Googly eyes are a must for Halloween. I think this is so much more festive and cuter than anything you can buy.
Put your sodas in the bottom of your bucket, fill with candy and add a BOO card. I found a simple card from Mars and Wrigley. It was perfect, and so simple to put together:
- Cut out this “We’ve been BOO’d sign.
- Fold the “You’ve been BOO’d” greeting card (page 2) and tape openings together.
- Include the card and sign when gifting BOO bundles.
Guess what? Walmart is getting in on the #BOOItForward action too – check out this giveaway for $1000. Enter while you can!
