Happy Halloween!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Halloween!  I know the weather wasn't exactly the best, but I hope the kids were able to get out and get a little (or a lot) of candy.

Halloween week was a busy week at CCIS.  Beside celebrating Halloween, it was also Red Ribbon Week.  Red Ribbon Week is a week dedicated to being Drug Free!  It was great to see the kids dressing up for the theme days and pledging to be "Drug Free!"

Wednesday of that week, TRAILS took a community trip to McDonald's and Berkots.  While at Berkots, we bought the ingredients for "Mummy Munch."  Below you will find the receipt (we added popcorn and granola) for Mummy Munch and some pictures from cooking.

Mummy Munch

4 Cups Honey Chex Cereal

16 oz package vanilla candy melts

1 Cup Autumn Mix (candy corn, little pumpkins)

1 Cup dry roasted peanuts

2 Cups mini pretzels

1. Place cereal, Autumn mix, peanuts and pretzels into a large bowl. Mix to combine. Melt vanilla candy melts according to package directions then pour into cereal mixture. Gently stir until well coated then pour onto wax paper or a silpat lined baking sheet to dry. Once dried, break up into pieces and put into cute Halloween cupcake liners or into little bags.

About 8 Cups

 Halloween was a fun party day for the kids!  We watched Hotel Transylvania and enjoyed out Mummy Munch.  For the afternoon, the kids had a choice of game rotations or staying to watch another Halloween movie.
