My neighbor has this and it's huge, it's one of the most visited houses in the neighborhoods all over our development. My daughter is 2 and so scared so we don't have one but it's a good buy to get some visits!
Haunted Hill Farm 7-Ft Tall Werewolf Animatronic
This Skelton is huge and animated, so it's been the reason why kids visit our neighbors house so much. They have a few big hits I wanted to share, just due to the attraction they have gotten and it's not even Halloween!
Fun Costumes 8FT Animated Outdoor Skeleton
These are easy to place, easy to move, at a good price point and can be used inside or out. We have a bench we place them on, sometimes the kids dress them just to play! They're fun and easy to store back up - that's my good buy, something I can use and put up again easy
oceanite 2-Pack 36-Inch Posable Halloween Skeleton
If you have a child that is scared like mine, these are cute and good price point. We like to participate but not at our kids expense lol
DAZONGE Light-Up Spooky Ghost Dog Halloween Decor
I LOVE Boo and Eek from Target. They have such great finds, smaller pricing, larger pricing, of quality. I used this for a mini haunted house we had. It's very easy to set up, quality nice. Does need a little assistance at times to stay up, we used a little weight and it held down nice. We're in FL near wind
Lewis & Friends™ 8' Halloween Light and Sound Lewis the Pumpkin Ghoul - Hyde and EEK! Boutique™
I'll always be a fan of window clings because they're cheap and you get something new each year. You could probably save them but I don't trust dust lol Eek and Boo have a lot products under $10 and the colors and quality are amazing
Northlight 14-Piece Orange and Green "Boo!" Halloween Gel Window Clings
Easy to setup up, kids were excited and it's nice colors to see at night. HOA enjoyed as well because it's not too big but big enough. Fun add!
3D HD Giant Spider Halloween Projector+250 Purple LED Web Lights
Our neighbor is doing a haunted house so he has the coolest things just to walk through. He has these hanging on his tree before you go in. They're not big or bulky so they kind of flow easy with the breeze to move. Not scary but nice decor!
JOYIN Halloween Hanging Grim Reapers (3 Pack)
We live in an HOA so the lawn is very important, this is a cute way of saying to stay off the grass but Happy Halloween 😉
Halloween Garden Banner
These are simple and so easy to do. We did it one year in a Harry Potter theme but can be used for anything!
6 PCS Black Witch Hats Halloween Decor Set

These can go outside or inside, are budget friendly, easy to put and look nice alongside any decor!
LUDILO 100pcs Halloween Bats Wall Décor
We have a little fire area and these were so cute to add around them, since it was also decorated. We also ended up taking them off and putting into my daughters tent and she enjoyed! The colors are nice, nice quality as well
LOLStar Halloween 9.8FT 20 LED String Lights
I try and buy things that aren't scary for my daughters sake, but something cute and that you can reuse. These are wood and hold up really well. While not scary, it's still a nice decor!
COCHIE Halloween Tiered Tray Decor Set of 3
This can be inside or outside but regardless, it looks cute off and when it's on, it's fun. When we turn on, we do bring outside because bubbles can be messy :)

These were easy to do and nice touch to any decor. We did it for Harry Potter but it easy comes out for Halloween too. Everyone compliments
Homemory 12Pcs Flameless LED Floating Candles
My niece LOVES Nightmare before Christmas, this was a nice addition to her room! She was way to excited for this. It's a gift to give that's unique or an addition to the decor, either way works!
Echo Dot 5th Gen 2022 + Disney Jack Skellington
We grew up on Friday the 13th, this was just a fun add to put in fish tank!

My daughter is an adult in college and she doesn't indulge in horror movies, she likes some of a classics and not the gory stuff but this was cute for her to take around and write in. She loves to draw and is always in need of paper and notebooks
I Run On Coffee & Horror Movies: 120 Dot Grid Journal
Jacksonville Local Halloween
Jacksonville is always fun to tour for Halloween. We ride bikes down the street to look at houses, find pumpkin patches or even look in the stores! These are a few places that always do good with decor!
If you live in Jax or surrounding areas, here is a list of the Spirit Halloweens up and Running!
Jacksonville FL Halloween & Costume Stores | Spirit Halloween
This is cute for all ages, especially young because during the day, you still see the decor and it's not too scary. Plus, the animals have little Halloween Decor items to play with. Parking is easy too, they have specials on pricing currently!
Spooktacular | Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens
This is in GA but not too far from North FL area. I LOVE this place because it's big, pricing is on the cheaper end, they have so many things to see and rides for everyone, plus do all the fun Pumpkin foods and activities. Definietly an all-day thing. During the summer, they have a pool area
Wild Adventures
It's too scary for our Toddler so we don't go but older kids love! They do a good job at scary. Can be a long wait depending on when you go, it's worth it but be prepared just in case!
13th Floor Jacksonville Haunted House
Healthier Halloween side
It is so hard to find items that are gluten free, don't contain chemicals or artificial ingredients, or even allergy friendly. While not all these check all the boxes, they do have some good ingredients and are free of dyes.
We used this for inspiration to do a few finger foods with our Toddler. She loves to cook and help, and with her eczema, we have to be careful on what she eats overall. These were fun and she might not have eaten all of them but it was fun to do. She tried at least everything out of the spirit!
Healthy Halloween Snacks (EASY!) - Meaningful Eats
My oldest son gets so mad when I try to get other types of Halloween candy or to him ‘off-brand’ :) but he does eat these! It's not in everyone's budget to buy and that's ok. I buy to give him snacks in his lunch too!
YumEarth Halloween Organic Candies Variety Bag - 16.55oz/50ct
Not always in budget but the kids actually like and they're the healthier side of Halloween Candy. Always a win, just have to order before Halloween to get them in time!
Unreal Halloween Dark Chocolate PB Cups, 40 ct
If you find yourself using ketchup to make Halloween themed items, this ketchup is amazing! It's made with veggies, 2g of sugar naturally and tastes great. It's always a compliment to dishes
True Made Foods No Sugar Added Veggie Ketchup, 17 oz
It's hard to find candy in a nice budget, that has ingredients that can be good for you and your family. While I added, these have good ingredients but easily out of budget. If anything, I buy to have my occasional candy without guilt :) and I don't share
Alter Eco Dark Chocolate Truffles 60 Ct
These aren't packaged but if you're having a party and want to put them out, they have limited ingredients and are allergy friendly as a bonus! They aren't as flavorful as regular gummies according to my son but they're fine for me and the toddler :)
Surf Sweets Organic Fruity Bears, 2.75 Oz
These aren't allergy friendly; they also have some sunflower oil which I'm not always fond of but it's on the end of the ingredient list and it has pretty clean ingredients for gummies. These aren't packaged so it's moreso a snack if you're having people over or a snack for yourself of course! The flavor is good, not too sweet for me which kids might notice if they're picky but mine adapted
Black Forest Organic Gummy Bears, 8 Ounce
These actually taste good, it comes with a lot, they're organic, allergy friendly, contain no artificial. They're usually a hit, especially Halloween or an event. It's a big bag of course! They do smaller versions as well
Torie & Howard Organic Hard Candy, 5 lb
Halloween Treats w/out treats
I'd rather hand out some fun items than to give some of the candy on the market today. It's really horrible the ingredients they have in them. I am not saying we don't have any candy because it's hard to get away from but I do try and be creative and picky when possible and in budget. These will always be in budget!
This was so cute because it includes a Halloween backdrop to place stickers and Halloween themed stickers. Good price point, fun to take around!
Hello Kitty Halloween Puffy Playset w/ Stickers
Kids will never get sick of GLOW STICKS! I get them all the time, for every occasion and these are especially nice for Halloween if it's dark. They are cheap and always liked, which is what I like :)
PartySticks 100 Pack 8" Ultra Bright Glow Sticks
These were always fun to kids too, they usually take these out first and just start stamping! It's a close with Halloween candy, they always enjoy them…probably because they can be messy so no one ever gets them but on occasions!
Halloween Stamps for Kids, 50 Pcs Party Favors
Stickers will forever be a win and these are really cute. They have good design, have some for older and younger kids. Good to add in a goodie bag or just let them pick
BEATRI Halloween Stickers 50Pcs Vinyl
No matter the age, we always get the older and younger kids doing this. It's something about making your own design :) always fun
xFFFun 36 Set Halloween Crafts for Kids DIY
I saw another mom do this and thought it was genius! There are several pages to color and easy to fit into a gift pack or just give out. You can even include crayons or don't, they usually go home to color
90shine 60PCS Halloween Coloring Books Party Favors
These are too cute. We used for Halloween, although can be purchased anytime. They can be walked, that's the best part! The kids love these, sometimes the dogs but overall, fun purchase and they last
4 Pcs Walking Cat Foil Balloons for Kids
You can't really hand these out but if you need ideas for a party, even the adults join this. Everyone loves to paint rocks and then we display outside for the remaining holiday and reuse! Good for garden too
NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC Creepy Creatures Rock Painting Kit
Clothes
These are so soft and were fun to wear this month. We do size up because they're snug but our daughter is pretty heft as well. They are thin but it's bamboo, we need that. They have so many different kinds and even glow in the dark which lasted for HOURS so be aware lol our daughter took a while to go to bed because she said she kept glowing
Little Sleepies Bamboo Toddler Pajama Set
Pat Pat is cute, affordable, they do bamboo, 100% cotton and have fun styles for Halloween and other holidays. You have to order in time because sometimes the sizes will make the order come in later. Check sizing because you may have to order a size bigger. We know usually the cotton or bamboo for us, is a size up
PATPAT Family Christmas PJs Matching Sets
Our daughter isn't exactly aware of what Halloween is, so it's scary. She loves cats, pumpkins and all the nice stuff - this was a hit. Good material, good color and she loves when we wear
Retro Black Cat Pumpkin Halloween T-Shirt
These were fun for our toddler, they were super cute and let her dress up to go out. We're in FL so the fabric was thinner which is what we want of course. Good colors, but do size up
ITFABS Toddler Girl Halloween Plaid Pumpkin Set
