Little budding artists love to glue! And cotton balls and paper make for easy, quick cleanup. Either you or the child can design the ghost's body and then let them go crazy with cotton balls. Googly eyes or cut out circles can finish it off. If you are really feeling creative, add a spritz of glow-in-the dark or glitter spray paint

Karen White is the self-proclaimed leading authority on being "that mom." You know the one. The PTO Vice President, room mom, baseball team mom, AND leader of well-behaved kids (OK, the well-behaved part may be stretching it . . . like really stretching . . .) When she isnât threatening to tackle one of her boys on the ball field if they donât run faster, or convincing her 4-year-old daughter that everything doesnât HAVE to sparkle, she is also a wife and stay-at-home mom of three. One of the three happens to have been adopted, but good luck figuring out which one it is, since they all have pasty white skin, blond hair, and blue eyes.
