Are you ready for Halloween? We are not. Nor are we excited for it. I really do not like the holiday and all the Halloween items seemed to be out extra early this year and they seem extremely gruesome. Has anyone else felt this way? Hazel has had bad dreams since seeing some of those bigger than life size lawn decorations at a store. I have realized it is better to not take her to most stores at this point or to avoid the ones with so many Halloween decorations. Hazel has not decided what she even wants to be yet, but she knows she has to choose from costumes she has or the Princess in Black.
This year we are focusing on calmer and not so frightening parts of Halloween. PBS Kids has helped by sending us three DVDs to review from some of Hazel's favorite shows.
WordWorld Halloween Fun! has some of the same shows as last year's but also has three more stories. Hazel loves these stories as they are not scary and she does not get to watch WordWorld very often except at Gymboree if she happens to catch it on the television there. She loved all five stories and it is a fun start to the Halloween season. We recommend it for the younger children. At six Hazel is really becoming a bit old for it.
So here are three Halloween DVDs that will not be too scary for children including some for younger children. Enjoy!! Happy Halloween!!
