Saturday 27th October was our Halloween party at Alder Hey.  We had a good turn out and we decorated the clinic before families arrived.  We had prepared “Trick or Treat” bags for the children to decorate themselves ready to put all there treats and goodies in.

We’d also got lots of games for the kids to play; we had dress a Witch, these were cardboard and they had a variety of outfits children could colour in and coloured glitter glue to add a sparkle to any witches outfit; we had make a spider using cauliflowers and tangerines plus straws and we had best dressed pumpkinks and best dressed outfits.

Thank you to everyone who made an effort here and came dressed to impress also those who made scary and fun pumpkins.

Another game we’d prepared was “duck apple”.  This involved putting apples in bowls of water and the children had to dunk their heads to try to get their apple out.  I must say the children were very good at this.  The highlight of the event had to be when baby George crawled for the first time to have a go, his mum was so delighted!  It just shows the children enjoy the events we do – it must have been good if a 9 month old crawls for the first time just to join in.
