With Halloween only a few short weeks away, we wanted to share a few Ghastly Goodies for your GHOULS and GOBLINS with our Halloween Guide!
Firefly Toothbrushes – While instilling healthy oral care habits in children can be a brush battle, to begin with, getting kids to brush for the recommended amount of time after a holiday full of sweets and mischief can be challenging for parents.
The Ready Go toothbrush has a 60-second light-up timer that helps teach independence with the recommended amount of time – 1 minute for each row of teeth. They also just launched a brand new Star Wars Lightsaber toothbrush that features character voices, flashing lights, and galactic sounds to encourage kids to defeat the dark side of cavities! My son loves the swooshing lightsaber sounds and how it looks like a lightsaber. It makes brushing fun!

This magical and festive bouquet, filled with lilies, carnations, and mums, is a great addition to your entryway, dining table, or kid’s table.

Gilbert the Ghost – Gilbert goes to ghost school like all the other ghosts, but he’s a special ghost: he doesn’t like to screech scarily, he doesn’t want to haunt, and he is always polite. Gilbert is sent by the head of the school to the Abandoned Tower to learn how to shriek like a ghost properly. Find out what happens to Gilbert and the other ghosts when they visit him in the tower.

Thanks for the review on The Halloween Items. I always watch It’s The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown every year with my kids. I never knew of The Fall Peeps though I will have to try and find them since my one son likes them.
