Green Halloween: Costumes, Treats and More
by Janelle Sorensen
Halloween is creeping up fast, but if your kids are like mine (they can't decide on a costume), then you still have time to pick an earth-friendly option. And, if you are like me (procrastinate until the last minute), then you still have time to buy healthy treats. Here's a quick rundown of some of the great green ideas that have been shared with me over the past few weeks:

Halloween is creeping up fast, but if your kids are like mine (they can't decide on a costume), then you still have time to pick an earth-friendly option. And, if you are like me (procrastinate until the last minute), then you still have time to buy healthy treats. Here's a quick rundown of some of the great green ideas that have been shared with me over the past few weeks:
- TREATS: The Tranquil Parent has some tasty ideas for healthier treats in addition to our own blog on Thinking Outside the Candy Box and Sustainablog highlights a really great reusable Halloween bag to carry your haul in.
- CRAFTS AND DÉCOR: The Tree Hugging Family has been posting awesome green Halloween ideas all month like non-toxic face paints and recycled Halloween crafts. Find wonderfully wicked green décor over at Green Living.
- COSTUMES: The Green Baby Guide has some interesting ideas for DIY costumes and even though TeensyGreen doesn't celebrate Halloween, she still shares some great ideas and resources for doing it green including the Inhabitots Green Halloween Contest. Amy from Craft Magazine sent me cute costume ideas (Bee, Monkey, Lego, Sushi, Pirate) that can be made from materials you probably have lying around your house (or you can easily pick up from a thrift store).

Happy Haunting!
