Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. I really love everything about it. Trick or treating, of course, is one of my son’s favorite parts. We always look at all of the fun trick or treat bag options. I only got to use a pillowcase when I was little, so I have a lot of fun looking at the bags. This set from TGS Gems is so cute. You get two bags in this set. They are made out of a nice, thick canvas material, so they should last more than one season, depending on how tough your kids are on them, lol. One is the traditional bag style with handles. The handles are made out of a black canvas material, and are long enough so you can carry the bag on your shoulder. The other bag is a drawstring style bag. This can be used to store your trick or treat candy to pass out, or keep away from your kids while you are waiting for the day, lol. You can trick or treat with it, but it’s like carrying a pillowcase all over again, since there are no handles. There is, however, a drawstring, so if you dropped the bag, your candy will not fall out. And that is definitely an upgrade from a pillowcase. You can also use the drawstring bag year from year to dole out a Halloween gift. Some families give their kids little presents for Halloween. Grandma has always done that in our household. The bag with handles has the option to write your child’s name on the bag. At the very bottom of the bag it states: “Bag of Treats Belongs to”, and then there is blank space to write your name in. You can use a Sharpie marker, fabric paint, or fabric markers. This is a great for households with multiple kids. The bags are virtually the same size, and that is a generous size at that. The drawstring bag is 19” long and 14” wide, and the bag with handles is 19 ½” long and 14” wide. You can fit a lot of candy in these bags. Hopefully your kids won’t sneak toilet paper out in these bags, lol. No tricks, just treats with these bags.

Pumpkin lights! – Liberty Imports’ Halloween Pumpkin Lights. https://cspierdowis.com/pumpkin-lights-liberty-imports-halloween-pumpkin-lights/ https://cspierdowis.com/pumpkin-lights-liberty-imports-halloween-pumpkin-lights/#respond Sat, 22 Oct 2016 02:35:54 +0000 https://cspierdowis.com/?p=6330

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. I love everything about it, espically the decorations. Nothing is more iconic than the Jackolantern either. These lights are really cute. Even though they are not LED, they have them made to keep working, even when a light  goes out. I was able to test this out immediately too. One of my pumpkins would not light up upon arrival. Poor thing stayed dark while all of the other pumpkins slowly blinked along. They include 2 spare bulbs with this set. This is a blinking set. There is no other setting option available. On this set of lights from Liberty Imports, you get 10 pumpkins. The individual lights slide into the top of each pumpkin too. There is only 24” of leader line from the plug to first pumpkin, so you may need to use an extension cord, if you are hanging them up. I needed to use one. The entire set is approx.. 11ft long. Every pumpkin is about 12” apart, and each pumpkin is a pretty good size, at 2 ½” in diameter. They plug into a regular outlet, and can use any extension cord, since they have a 2 prong plug. When I first tested them out, I literally just laid them on the floor near me, and let them run all night. The pumpkins are so large, that they never even get warm to the touch when on. This is great, because little ones are drawn to lights, and will definitely try to touch them. When my youngest was little he was drawn to Jackolanterns because of their faces. He loved everything with faces, lol. Overall this is a fun set of lights. I wish they had an option to stay on fully, but since they blink slowly, they are still comfortable to look at and are enjoyable. Some lights blink so fast, so they can make you dizzy, and hurt your eyes. Fortunately, this set is not like that. The green wiring gives the resemblance of pumpkin vines, so the lights look extra cute to me. With all of the LED lights hitting the market, these almost look old fashioned, lol. I actually shocked myself with that reaction. I love, love, love the look. These are sooooo much cuter than the thin LED pumpkin lights I’ve seen. The wonderful character of a Jackolantern, gets lost that way. These are truly iconic.

I received these at a discount. I was under no obligation to leave my unbiased and honest review. – Liberty Imports’ Halloween Pumpkin Lights Blinking Decorative String Lights – Set of 10 Lights.

Time to get spooky. – YoungKer’s Vbiger Scary Halloween Skeleton. https://cspierdowis.com/time-to-get-spooky-youngkers-vbiger-scary-halloween-skeleton/ https://cspierdowis.com/time-to-get-spooky-youngkers-vbiger-scary-halloween-skeleton/#respond Mon, 22 Aug 2016 20:03:38 +0000 https://cspierdowis.com/?p=5170

Halloween is my favorite holiday. It is so much fun, and it’s for all ages. When you think of Halloween, you think of skeletons. My son had to have one last year, and it was a hard plastic. He immediately broke one of the joints, so now it’s a one-armed skeleton, lol. So, I am really liking this one. It is so much more durable, and house friendly. It is soft to the touch, and it is made out of plastic foam, but feels like a thick foam. If you put your face close to it, you can smell it at first. It’s shipped in a cellophane wrapper. It did air out. The smell wasn’t strong enough to make me sick with my insane allergies, so I have no concern over it. All foam has an odor to it. The design looks just like it’s pictured. One of the eyes has a smidgen of red just outside of the eye socket. That might make someone with OCD nuts, lol. A white out pen, or sharpie marker can correct that if it bothered you. It doesn’t bother me at all. Mine measured out at 25 inches long, and 9 inches wide, at the widest point. Fortunately, it has a loop attached to it, so it’s a breeze to hang up. Since it is soft, it won’t scratch up your walls or doors, if your kid plays with it, like mine. So, I am loving that feature. The cord is attached to the top of the head, and is 5 ½” long. It can be used both indoors and outdoors. I love the red color in the eye sockets. It gives it a lot of depth and interest. You can add it to a collage of other spooky decorations, or let it hang alone. You can add flashing lights, or colored LEDs, to make it look spookier. Just be creative and have a lot of fun. It’s an easy going, foam skeleton, enjoy.

Costume Time!!!!! – Yagoozon’s Kangaroo’s Red And White Beanie Hat With Nerd Glasses. https://cspierdowis.com/costume-time-yagoozons-kangaroos-red-and-white-beanie-hat-with-nerd-glasses/ https://cspierdowis.com/costume-time-yagoozons-kangaroos-red-and-white-beanie-hat-with-nerd-glasses/#respond Wed, 16 Mar 2016 05:42:38 +0000 https://cspierdowis.com/?p=3045

Costumes are so much fun. My 8 year old likes to play with them year round. This one is so cute. The first thing I screamed when I saw it was, “Where’s Waldo!”. No, it’s not a licensed product. It just reminds me of it completely. The look is fun. The glasses are plastic with clear lenses. The round lenses make me smile, lol. My son is sooooooo cute in this outfit. I need to order a red and white striped shirt now, lol. It will fit a child as well as an adult. On a child it will be more hat style, than beanie style. To keep the lenses clean, I recommend using a microfiber cleaning cloth, to avoid scratching them. The hat is amazing. It is made so much better than I thought it would be. It is actually a nice hat that just so happens to be part of the costume. The material is thick, and soft on your head. The pompom on the top of the hat reminds me of Raggedy Ann and Andy. It is a red year pompom, and too cute. The stitching on the hat was done tight and on point. There was no odor to the hat upon arrival, and my glasses were in perfect condition. The do not state what the material of the hat is made out of, but it reminds me of a thick cotton/polyester blend. I am really happy with this set.

Jumbo Cartoon Hands from Kangaroo on Amazon. https://cspierdowis.com/jumbo-cartoon-hands-from-kangaroo-on-amazon/ https://cspierdowis.com/jumbo-cartoon-hands-from-kangaroo-on-amazon/#respond Sat, 12 Mar 2016 06:33:43 +0000 https://cspierdowis.com/?p=2922

It’s fun to dress up in costume. My son loves to for fun. These cartoon hands are hilarious. Hey scream Mickey Mouse to me. These are so soft and cushy. They have the usual glove slip on, but since the finger holes are so large, it’s no big deal to have two fingers in one. It is only a four finger glove, after all. These gloves go to the start of your wrist. The top of the hand is highly padded, but the underside is not. That way you can still bend and grasp with your hand. The fingers are highly padded as well. They do not state what material is used for the gloves, but it reminds me of a polyester with fiberfill filling. The stitching on the gloves was done well. I have no loose threads, or poor stitching on mine. My gloves did not have any weird odor to them as well. These really are hilarious. I think they are great for Halloween, dress up, and if your little ones are always fighting each, make them put these on first, lol.
