What’s a Boo Bucket?

Think of it as an extra-special kick-off to the Halloween season. When I first told my husband I was doing Boo Buckets, his response was, “A Boo what?” 😅 Clueless! But like so many moms, my goal is to make every holiday extra special—because I want to keep my kids little for as long as possible and keep that magic spark alive. 

This year, we’re doing it BIG, thanks to our amazing local sponsors!  I’ll be hand-delivering 100 Boo Buckets to families across the community to help make Halloween just a little more exciting.

Inside, you might find candy, toys, and coupons—it’s all about spreading spooky joy… and maybe confusing your neighbors just enough to make it fun! 


How It Works

Step 1:
Receive your Boo Bag and enjoy all of your goodies!

Step 2:
Hang the “We’ve Been Boo’d” sign on your door or window to show the neighborhood that you have already received your Halloween fun! 

Step 3:
Make two Boo Bags of your own. Fill them with goodies, include a copy of our "You've Been Boo'd" signs, and discretely deliver to our neighbors of choice!
