We had another fun Storytime at our local library, and I was so excited to share my homemade pumpkin slime.

I love this pumpkin slime recipe not only because it’s easy but because you will have all of the ingredients in your home, especially during the fall season!

I am not a massive slime fan, and I don’t understand the hype. If you’re like your little ones are not ready for this sensory texture, have them play with it in a ziplock bag.

Ingredients

1-2 cups pumpkin guts or canned pumpkin

1 5 oz bottle of clear glue

1/3 cup water

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 tablespoon contact solution

Directions

  • Pour the glue, water, baking soda, and pumpkin into a bowl and stir until it’s combined.
  • Add contact solution and mix until desired consistency.
  • Store in an airtight container or ziplock bag.

Why does every meal I make for my kid need to be spooky? Because it’s too easy and he loves it. This week I managed to make three easy dinners in minutes. I made them creepy, but they are great any time of the year.

I made a pumpkin quesadilla, ghost pizzas, and skull cheese sticks. The best part is that each recipe was created in minutes. The ease of using Feekaa Air Fryer Toaster Oven has made dinners a breeze. It is a 7-in-1 combo, so I have the option to bake, toast, air fry, broil, and more!

It’s that time of year to make all of the spooky treats! These Halloween cereal treats did not disappoint.

Ingredients

Directions

Spray your pan with cooking spray. Layer with Peeps, top with cereal. Layer again with Peeps and sliced cold butter.

Bake at 350F degrees for 10 mins. Take out and stir the peeps mixture a little bit (add more cereal if needed). Mix in eyeball sprinkles. Let them cool fully.

Take a butter knife and spread some cream cheese frosting on parchment paper to give a ghost shape.

Freeze for 1 hour, you can make these ahead of preparing the treats. Add a face to them using sprinkle eyeballs or with black gel frosting.

Cut cereal treats into squares and top ghosts on them. You can also roll some into a ball and place inside mini cauldrons.

If you do not want the ghosts to be hardened you can smear the frosting right on the cereal treats before serving.
