>>> FOLLOWING IS A WEEK FROM
TODAY AND WITH THE CDC
RECOMMENDING SKIPPING TRICK-OR-
TREATING, WE FOUND THERE ARE
ALTERNATIVES TO CELEBRATE FROM
HOME.
LITTLE NEWTONS EARLY EDUCATION
CENTERS THANKS FOR BEING WITH
US THIS MORNING.
>> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.
>> WHY ISN'T GOING TO FIND
OTHER WAYS TO CELEBRATE THIS
YEAR?
>> IT'S ONE OF THOSE DECISIONS
WHERE SOME PARENTS WILL GO
TRICK-OR-TREATING AROUND THE
NEIGHBORHOOD AND OTHERS CHOOSE
TO STAY HOME, I HAVE A COUPLE
DIFFERENT OPTIONS FOR THOSE
FAMILIES SO THEY CAN HAVE FUN
STAYING IN.
>> FOR FUN ACTIVITIES FOR
FAMILIES, WHAT IS THE FIRST,
CHRISSY?
>> THE FIRST ONE AS HALLOWEEN
BINGO, VERY EASY, THERE ARE
LOTS OF DECORATIONS OUT THERE
RIGHT NOW, YOU CAN WALK AROUND
THE NEIGHBORHOOD, YOU CAN MAKE
YOUR OWN, YOU CAN GO ON LITTLE
NEWTONS FACEBOOK AND YOU CROSS
THEM OFF AS YOU SEE THEM, SUPER
FUN AND EASY.
>> THAT IS A GOOD IDEA, I LIKE
CHECKING THINGS OFF AND LOOKING
FOR DIFFERENT THINGS IN THE
NEIGHBORHOOD.
PEOPLE MIGHT HAVE TO DIG INTO
THE SNOW A BIT FOR THE NEXT ONE
I UNDERSTAND, WHAT IS YOUR IDEA
FOR ALL THE LEAVES ON THE LAWN?
>> ABSOLUTELY, WITH THE SNOW,
SOMETIMES UNPREDICTABLE, BUT WE
DO A LOT OF FALL ACTIVITIES,
TRY TO BE INCLUSIVE WITH
CULTURES AND BACKGROUNDS AT OUR
LOCATION, SO IT'S EASY TO TAKE
LEAVES, YOU CAN TAKE A WREATH
LIKE THIS, YOU CAN HAVE THE
CHILDREN PAINT WITH THE LEAVES.
EVEN IF THERE SNOW, YOU CAN GO
TO A LOCAL STORE AND BY
ARTIFICIAL LEAVES IF YOU WANTED
TO DO AN ACTIVITY LIKE THAT.
>> MIKE TOLD US BY NEXT WEEKEND
WE WILL SEE MORE OF THESE
LEAVES, THAT IS A GOOD IDEA.
WE ARE TALKING DARK AND SPOOKY,
THAT IS WHAT HALLOWEEN IS ALL
ABOUT, BUT I UNDERSTAND GLOW
STICKS CAN CUT THROUGH THAT
FRIGHT, WHAT'S YOUR IDEA ON HOW
THEY CAN BE USED?
>> GLOW STICKS, CHILDREN LOVE
THINGS THAT ARE GLOW-IN-THE-
DARK, SO THERE'S A COUPLE
DIFFERENT THINGS YOU CAN DO,
YOU CAN PURCHASE GLOW STICKS,
YOU CAN PAINT OBJECTS WITH GLOW-
IN-THE-DARK PAINT AND HAVE AN A
SCAVENGER HUNT IN YOUR
BACKYARD, EVEN WITH THE SNOW,
THEY WILL STILL HAVE FUN DOING
THAT.
SOMETHING ELSE, YOU CAN
PURCHASE THE GLOW-IN-THE-DARK
BRACELETS OR NECKLACES, YOU CAN
DO RING TOSS OR PLAY SOME ON
THE GROUND AND YOU GLOW-IN-THE-
DARK HOPSCOTCH.
>> HOW ABOUT A LITTLE SCIENCE
EXPERIMENT, SLIME?
>> SLIME IS AMAZING BECAUSE
THERE ARE THE MANY DIFFERENT
THINGS YOU CAN DO WITH IT.
SO, I ALREADY HAVE SOME BLUE IN
THE BOWL.
I'M GOING TO GO AHEAD AND JUST,
THIS IS APPROXIMATELY FOUR
OUNCES, IF YOU BUY ONE OF THOSE
REGULAR SIZE SMALL BOTTLES,
IT'S ABOUT HALF OF THAT BOTTLE.
THE THING TO KNOW, IT'S ONLY
TWO OTHER INGREDIENTS BESIDES
GLUE, IT IS THE BAKING SODA AND
CONTACT SOLUTION.
IT IS A TWO TO ONE RATIO,
BAKING SODA IS GOING TO BE ONE
AND THEN TWO TIMES THE AMOUNT
OF CONTACT SOLUTION.
YOU MIX IT UP.
YOU CAN LITERALLY ADD ANYTHING
YOU WANT TO MAKE IT WHETHER IT
SPOOKY, SCARY, GLOW-IN-THE-
DARK, ALL DIFFERENT THINGS.
YOU CAN PUT FOOD COLORING IN
IT, MAKES IT ORANGE, YOU CAN
PUT PLASTIC SPIDERS AND IT.
THESE ARE THE SPIDER RINGS,
PLASTIC BATS, THEY ALSO HAVE
GLITTER GLUE.
THIS WAS MADE OUT OF BLACK
GLITTER GLUE, SO IT LOOKS LIKE
THE NIGHT SKY.
MANY, MANY DIFFERENT OPTIONS.
SOMETHING ELSE I FOUND WAS A
VERY EASY, YOU CAN GO AND BUY A
KIT.
I HAPPEN TO FIND THIS GLOW-IN-
THE-DARK KIT IT IS PERFECT
BECAUSE CHILDREN LIKE GLOW-IN-
THE-DARK.
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR GIVING
