Roberta’s Costume Dilemma
By Roberta Rabbit Okay, can you help me out? I am stuck. I have to figure out what to be for Halloween – it’s only ten days away! – and I still don’t have a clue. I had been thinking of being a mermaid, but I’m kind of worried that with Sera around in the Adventure Park, any other mermaid would pale in comparison. So I thought about being a pirate, but what if Laurabeard decides to go out as a pirate? I mean, her brother is Dogbeard. He can probably give her loads of cool stuff for a pirate costume. How could I compete with a real pirate? I saw this cute Turkey costume, but I’m not sure the Gravy Boat Hat really suits me. I found this wild Werewolf costume but will any of my friends even recognize me? Does that even matter? I AM pretty scary in this get up, aren’t I? Then I saw this cool witch costume. It’s wicked huh? But I’m … Read more
The ‘Kinz Carve Pumpkins
By Sparky Hi there! My Uncle Arte said I could invite some friends over to his friend’s farm today and we could carve pumpkins for Halloween! This is so cool because they have a really neat pumpkin patch so we could each choose our own. When everyone got here we were all searching around in the pumpkin patch for the biggest pumpkins. I think we found the best ones! Then we all planned out how we wanted to decorate our jack-o-lanterns. I wanted a super scary face – with giant fangs and really angry eyes. Molly said that she was going to do a cute one because she didn’t want to scare Millie when she brought it home. Cute? What is the point of that? Halloween is all about being scared! The scarier, the better if you ask me. Sally said she was going to do a funny one. She saved one of the pieces that she cut out for the eyes and put it in her pumpkin’s mouth so it looked like its tongue was sticking out! Isn’t that a cool idea (I kind of wish I had thought of … Read more
