How To Make A Cat Halloween Treat Bag
Today we have a fantastic DIY Cat Halloween treat bags tutorial which is a fun Halloween craft idea. My cousin has a black cat called Ned. He was a stray but was re-homed over a year ago and is just a happy cat now, happy, strong and well loved.

I do hope you like this fun halloween activity. This is a fantastic Halloween activity and is quick, simple and easy to create and halloween bags are a fun craft for the little ones to create.
What to Put in Halloween Gift Bags
Well, if you grew up trick or treating then you'll know that kids love candy and sweets. We love to have a mixture of halloween lollipops, candy and chocolate to put in children's halloween bags. You may want to bake halloween cookies or make your own Halloween party treats. They could go down really well with those knocking at your door.
You can also offer non food treats for kids such as little toys. We made a Zomblings Halloween lucky dip one year and another year we had halloween stones. This is a great alternative for kids with allergies or gluten intolerance etc.
