The Switch Witch and the Magic of Switchcraft Book and Doll Set Reviewed


The Switch Witch and the Magic of Switchcraft Book and Doll Set Reviewed

The Switch Witch is an interesting concept. If you feel that your children have too much candy after Halloween trick or treating, why not employ a Switch Witch?

For the uninitiated, the Switch Witch is a good witch who visits homes with children on Halloween and trades candy for gifts. She is a bit like the tooth fairy.

At bedtime, your children leave a predetermined amount of their candy with the Switch Witch and in the morning *** poof ***  that candy has turned into a special gift.

Mother Barbara on SheKnows.com says, "This is an especially good solution for kids with allergies, medical or dietary requirements that may be restricted from having candy, chocolate, nuts, food dyes, etc." However, Parents.com elaborates that "it isn't about taking the fun out of Halloween but rather that it's about helping kids to understand that fun doesn't have to mean food." Indeed, a lesson for all of us.

The Switch Witch appeared on the October 23, 2015, episode of ABC's Shark Tank.
Included in each set is a Switch Witch doll, cauldron and book. Here’s how it works:


My children are grown but I love the idea of a book to share with your wee ones and of the log to record each year's costume and Switch gifts. I would be sure to add a photo of your child in costume, too. What a great Halloween memory book you would be creating. Using a Switch Witch is sure to become a family tradition just like the Elf on the Shelf is for many families. My children would have loved the idea especially if the candy magically became a Lego set, a coveted book, a trip to the movies, which is, I believe, the secret to using this idea successfully. Make sure the exchange is fun and will make your children's eyes light up.

I will leave you with this link to Amazon, which is where I originally found The Switch Witch set. The book seems to be available now but not the doll set.  

If you are after The Original Switch Witch doll set, be sure to click here to check on eBay. When I checked just now, I see that two sets are available. 

Your children might also enjoy these free Switch Witch coloring sheets that are available on the original website where you will find a host of supporting merchandise but no doll sets.

Be sure to leave us a comment below and let us know what you think about this Halloween idea.

Happy Halloween!

Burger King's Halloween Whopper (2015)

Burger King's Halloween Whopper. Did you have one?

I’ll admit. It made me smile. Burger King’s Halloween Whopper, that is.

It was released for Halloween 2015 for a limited time only. It included what you would expect and a bit more.

A quarter pound hamburger patty, cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, mayonnaise and A.1. sauce, more sauce, pickles and onions. All loaded on a sesame seed bun. A black bun that is, infused with A.1. flavor.

Here's the official video from Burger King:



It looks pretty tasty, don't you think? I am not sure if I would eat one or not but I do think that the idea is fun for Halloween given our love in North America of Halloween. Of course, it is also a great marketing idea because it has us all talking about Burger King.

The small print? This burger packs in 710 calories and 43 grams of fat, which means that I will probably pass on this monstrous creation. How about it? Will you be trying one of these Halloween monsters or will you be passing? Be sure to 'lettuce' know.

Happy Haunting!

Five Zombie Coffee Mugs

For zombie fans, a collection of fun coffee mugs.


SHARE YOUR LOVE OF ZOMBIES WITH A ZOMBIE MUG


Zombie fans beware. I have uncovered a small but horror-iffic selection of Zombie coffee mugs. I've gathered them together and displayed them on this page and on other pages within this blog. Let me warn you that while I have included a few cute Zombie mugs I have also included a few not-so-cute Zombie mugs, given the true nature of this brain-eating creature.

Bet you would never have guessed that there are such, ah, interesting choices to be made when you go looking for a Zombie themed mug. Here's to the zombies...

INFECTED

The mug shown above is a perfectly horrible zombie mug. This one declares on the outside "Infected" and you get to see the real zombie revealed when you lift up the mug for a sip of coffee or serum. This mug (or maybe it is the contents) will bring you back from the dead.

If your mugs go missing at work, you might not want to choose this one because every one will have their eyes on it! 

This mug is no longer in production but occasionally you may find one by following this link to eBay.


A fun cup for anyone who loves zombies...and needs brains, LOL.

SCHOOL OF ZOMBIES


Brains...I Need Brains. Where else would a smart zombie head besides school? This School of Zombies mug declares a zombies need for brains on the interior where it reads, "Brains...I Need Brains." 

A handsome choice by Lorrie Veasey and Our Name is Mud. Find it on Amazon by clicking here.


ZOMBIE SERUM 


Does your zombie need his zombie serum every morning? Does it bring him back to life? If so, he'll appreciate this green-on-the-outside and black-on-the-inside Zombie Serum coffee mug by Lorrie Veasey and Our Name is Mud. It reads, "Zombie Serum. It Brings Me Back to Life." Kind of a handsome mug, don't you think? 

No longer in production, but you might find it on eBay by clicking here where you will find an assortment of retired Our Name is Mud zombie coffee mugs.

HIS AND HER TALKING & WAKING DEAD



A fun pair, I think of as a his and her set, of zombie-themed coffee cups.

I'm not quite sure but don't you think these Talking and Waking Zombie Mugs by Lorrie Veasey and Our Name is Mud qualify as his and hers mugs? One says, "The Talking Dead, Don't Speak To Me Until I've Had my Coffee." The other, "The Waking Dead, No Brains Before Coffee." What do you think and which one are you? Find this cup on Amazon by clicking right here.

Zombies Eat Flesh coffee mug a fun parody on everyone's favorite sandwich shop.

ZOMBIES...EAT FLESH


This humorous Zombies mug is, I believe, a take on the Subway Eat Fresh advertising campaign and reads, Zombie. Eat Flesh. It is available in both 11oz and 15 oz sizes and is both dishwasher and microwave safe. You'll find it from the creator on Zazzle by clicking right here.

Have you chosen YOUR zombie mug? - I'm 'dying' to hear which zombie coffee cup is for you... 

GOT ZOMBIES?
