How to Throw a Halloween Party for Teens

Video Transcript

"Hi, my name's Misty, and I'm going to show you how to throw a Halloween party for your teens. First, start with the invitation. Make sure the invitation has a clear start time and a clear time for parents to pick them up. And on your invitation, let them know if they should wear a costume. Are you going to have a contest or not? You don't want people showing up in costume and some without. When they get there, have an activity for them -- bobbing for apples, cutting pumpkins, something that they can all do together and join in as they arrive. And make sure you got the food. You need to have some Halloween food so you got to think creative. Peel some grapes to have some eyeball snacks, or add some red food coloring to Parmesan cheese, sprinkle it on pizza, and you instantly got some moldy pizza. When it's time to leave, make sure each of them have a treat to go home with -- maybe a cup full of candy. Try out some different things, and remember to pay attention to the details -- they make the party. Remember to always be safe, and have a happy Halloween."
