DIY Minecraft Trunk or Treat

This post contains Amazon affiliate links, see disclosure for details. Thanks for supporting my site!

If you have a Minecraft-loving kid, this DIY Minecraft Trunk or Treat is such a fun way to bring the game to life for Halloween! The best part about our setup is that I didn’t actually make most of it specifically for trunk or treat—I repurposed the Minecraft characters, blocks, and decorations I had already made for my son’s Minecraft birthday party. With a little rearranging (and a few Halloween touches), they worked perfectly to transform our trunk into a colorful, pixelated Minecraft world.

Whether you already have Minecraft party decorations you can reuse or you’re starting from scratch, I’m sharing all the details for recreating our Minecraft Trunk or Treat, including how I made the DIY Minecraft characters and blocks that brought the whole setup together.… Read the rest

How to Host a Trunk or Treat

I was in charge of the Trunk or Treat for our church community this year and I wanted to share what I learned from putting that event together. The beauty of these events is that they are pretty easy to pull together and such a blast for the kiddos. Even though it started pouring rain in the middle of ours, I think the kiddos all had a good time. And what’s a little sacrifice to make the candy taste that much sweeter đŸ™‚ ?

Boo Bucks Halloween Printable

My Easter “bunny bucks” are so popular I thought I’d make a Halloween version! These are so versatile, I’m excited to hear what you decide to do with them! You can use these much the same way as you do the bunny bucks in that instead of giving out candy you can give out “boo bucks” that they can then turn in for different prizes or rewards (an extra bed time story etc).

Or you could use them to “buy” the excessive amounts of candy off of your kids after they go trick or treating. Again they could trade them in for other non-candy based rewards.… Read the rest
