While Halloween is often associated with candy and trick or treating, I remember attending some great family friendly Halloween parties when I was growing up. Those parties had games and fun and awesome treats. When I was a kid there was no such thing as the ‘Walking Taco’ or Nabisco Go-Paks! But, if there were then, I think that this treat that I am about to show you how to make would have been a hit at every Halloween party on the block. So, in addition to bobbing for apples and eating donuts off a string we little ones would have been making our own Go-Paks! Halloween Treat creations.

Last week when I took Eva for her special birthday breakfast we spent the rest of the morning at Walmart picking up all the materials that we would need for this activity. We picked up two of every one of the Nabisco Go-Paks! flavors, four different Snack Pack Pudding flavors, some strawberries and a can of Reddi-wip. We also picked up some paints, stickers, ribbons and Halloween themed tape. I wanted the decorating to be something simple enough for Andrew and Eva to both enjoy. Here is how we created our special Go-Paks! Halloween Treats. But before I get to that I want to let you know about this coupon: BUY ONE, GET ONE FREE NABISCO Go-Paks! Buy ONE (1) Snack Pack® Pudding and get ONE (1) FREE (up to $1.00) NABISCO Go-Paks! (2.25 oz. or larger)

First we began by assembling all of our materials. We were only making four Go-Paks! Halloween Treats and so I picked out four of the Go-Paks! that we knew that we would use for our treats. The containers are great for filling because they are plastic and won’t leak. They also come with a cover and so you can eat part of the treat and put the rest in the fridge to eat later.

2015 Hess Fire Truck and Ladder Rescue

I just learned that the 2015 Hess Toy Truck is the Hess Fire Truck and Ladder Rescue. This looks like a great truck with plenty of fun extras like an LED Searchlight, slide out ramp, and four sound effects. The truck looks slick, too with chrome-detailed fire hose nozzles and LED lights. This will be a perfect addition to our fleet of Hess Toy Trucks that Santa has brought the kids each Christmas. I’ll be sure to be ordering on November 1, 2015.
