"Hi my name is Misty and I am going to show you how to bob for apples for Halloween. First you need a big bowl, I like to use a cauldron for extra effect. You are going to need water, apples of course, and towels, because this is a really messy game. Have your party guests come in and take turns. You are going to need a timer to time which party guest can get an apple only using their teeth. Make sure their hands are behind their back, and they are only using their teeth to get the apples. Depending on what kind of party you are throwing, you are going to need to know how difficult to make this game. If you are having children play this game, put a lot of apples in. The apples are not going to bob around as much. It is going to make it easier for them. And keep the stem. Sometimes the apples are too big for them, and they like to grab it by the stem. For adults, lesson the apples, take off the stem, and let the games begin. Have fun and remember to be safe, and have a happy Halloween."
