Gift Idea: Hot Cocoa Concoctions with Spooky Mix-Ins

| Filed Under: Children, Fall, Gift Ideas, Halloween, Holiday, Random Acts of Kindness, Tutorials

Here’s another fun gift idea or just all around fun activity you can do with your kiddos this fall. Last week, after our popcorn party from this post here, we did a hot chocolate bar of sorts after school one day. When my littles came home from school I had this fun little “Hot Cocoa Concoctions” table all set up for them to “make their own potion”, it was a blast! The hot chocolate concoctions bar for my littles to create into their very own potions included a few paper cups with Specimen Stickers on them (that came with the test tubes which you can find here), some fun paper stripey straws, and some humongous pumpkin marshmallows!

Then I labeled each test tube like so (with some Halloween-y washi tape of course!):

Pumpkin Guts = Orange halloween sprinkles

Spider Eggs = mini marshmallows

Eyeballs = mini m&ms

Witch Worts = mini chocolate chips
I think I really surprised the kids with this which is always a treat for me! They all asked that I do this every year so guess what? I will! Adding it to the calendar for next year, NOW!

Thanks for stopping by today!

love,

Maggie
