Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade
Maxine and I were extremely lucky to watch the parade at a friend’s apartment this year.

Halloween activities with the Family
It was a fun-filled Halloween weekend!
We made pumpkin rice krispies treats 🎃.
My daughter Maxine and my niece, painted a wooden cupcake, and we also assembled haunted houses as a family. Which haunted house is your favorite?
Halloween at Kanga’s Indoor Playground and Cafe
I’ve wanted to check out Kanga’s in Long Island City with the family for a while now. We ended up attending their Halloween party over the weekend. They had arts and crafts, face painting, and a discovery dig activity. The indoor playground was cool and had separate fun areas for various age groups. I also appreciated that they had a small cafe to get food; nothing fancy, but it was at least something. We will be back!
Trunk or Treat at Astoria Park
We attended a Trunk or Treat at Astoria Park. It was super crowded but super cute, and my daughter got a lot of treats!
Lil Goblins at The New York Junior League
We attended the annual Lil Goblins Halloween party at The New York Junior League. The event was a lot of fun. They had a balloon artist, a magician, cookie decorating, and trick-or-treating. My daughter, Maxine, was a cute lil ballerina 🎃.
Maxi’s Trick-or-Treat Bag
I wanted to find something low-maintenance that my daughter and mom could do together this year to celebrate Halloween.
I bought the Highlights Halloween craft kit. It included cute pumpkin decorations (which we used for Maxi’s pumpkin), stickers, and a cute tote bag that Maxie could use for trick-or-treating.
Here are pictures of my mom and daughter decorating the bag together ♥️.
Here is the final product!
Hello Kitty Halloween Sticker Countdown
My daughter is obsessed with Hello Kitty and Friends Supercute Adventures. I saw this on Instagram, and I had to buy it.
It’s a ten-day countdown to Halloween, but my daughter could not wait, so we started earlier, and we are now just opening them up whenever.
Each box has a cute sticker (or page of stickers), and they are gorgeous. Also, each one is meant to be a color activity, but my daughter just wants the stickers 😆.
I have always loved Hello Kitty and Sanrio in general, so I’m enjoying the calendar as much as my daughter is.
