Fall weather is officially here! There’s so many things that can be done in fall to spend time with friends and family and below is a list of things you can do to enjoy the season.

October is a spooky season so let’s start off with haunted houses. This year ValleyScare has been all the rage with high schoolers at North, admission for this particular activity is $39.99. Another activity that’s been buzzing around North is The Dead End Hayride, so if going to ValleyScare isn’t your thing maybe try out The Dead End Hayride.

If you have the time you can spend a day going to pumpkin patches there’s over 10 patches in and around the Twin Cities area. If you liked the pumpkin patch you should try one of the many apple orchards around the Twin Cities. Keep in mind that these places often have other fun things to do and try!

If you and your friends are crafty you can make spooky tie blankets. Take a trip to your local Michael’s or JoAnn’s and head to the fabric section and you each pick out a Halloween and or fall themed fabric and spend the afternoon binge watching your favorite Halloween movies eating your favorite foods. 

Boo Baskets are becoming a popular thing! If you have a friend or family member who is super into Halloween this may be something that you want to make for them. Essentially it is a Halloween themed basket that contains but is not limited to candy, a blanket, a candle, body care, etc. Keep in mind that these baskets do not have to be expensive!

If you enjoy cooking you can try these easy, fun foods. First you can try making ghost shaped pizzas with your favorite toppings. For dessert you can make Halloween sugar cookies that are designed and ready for you to make, you can find these in the dough section of your local Target.

Enjoy your time before the snow, be creative and have fun!
