I came across this idea over at
Whipperberry's blog, and had googled it when I saw it on another blog. Shockingly enough, it was posted on
A Bird and A Bean. :) (We are always on the same wave length. Good thing we are Sakura sistas!) I hadn't acted on my impulse to "Boo" someone yet, because we dont have very many kids on our street, and I wasn't sure how it would play out. Then a stroke of brilliance came over me, and I thought, "I CAN DO IT AT SCHOOL!" Last week was Fall break, so I knew the teachers would come back a bit sluggish. This would be the perfect reviver, and would get us in the mood for the upcoming Ole Hallow's Eve. Plus, it would be fun to start a sweet treat movement among friends.
It's pretty simple to do...You can google the idea and find TONS of templates. Decide what kind of treat you want to give. I gave a threesome of chocolate chip cookies that I baked. I was going to give some of the caramel apples we made, but decided to keep those for myself. :) Erin gave a bag of mixed candy...it's up to you. Put it in a bag or container, and attach the printed "boo" and poem. It's also a good idea to include extra copies of the poem/boo so that the next person can put them in the treats that they make. This will (hopefully) ensure that the ball gets rolling, and people get to boo-ing. Put the treat packages on someone's doorstep, or in my case, teacher's desk anonymously...watch the magic happen.
This is the poem. You can go

I printed the directions on the back of the poem.
