With Halloween right around the corner, it is that time of year to start thinking about some fun fall activities for you to do with your colleagues, friends and neighbors . Halloween Booing has become a fun and enjoyable event to start in your neighborhood or at the office with colleagues. Halloween Booing is a form a chain poems that you secretly leave at someone’s door or desk that also has a “Boo Bag” or gift basket attached to it. The lucky recipient then has to pass along a note and a Boo Bag to another friend, neighbor or colleague . The fun of “Booing” someone is that they receive a fun treat and poem from someone, but they never know who it is from. Once you have received a Boo Bag or gift baskets from someone, it is polite to hange a picture of a cartoon ghost on your door or at your desk so that others know you have already received a gift . Depending on your relationship with the recipient and their age will determine what you decide to put into the Boo bag or gift basket . If you are sending one to a family with kids, it is fun to put some Silly Bandz, Halloween pencils, and some Halloween candy in the bag. If it is for a colleague, you might consider putting some festive candy in there, like a caramel covered apple, a variety of Halloween candies, and even a carton of fresh apple cider . Don’t forget that adults like candy just as much as they did when they were kids, so don’t worry about putting Halloween themed candy in their gift basket. This is not meant to be an expensive gift, so a lot of people will spend between $5 - $30 depending on the friend and colleague. There are some specialty stores like a gift basket shop that are able to put together fun festive Boo Bags at a very reasonable price. No matter what you give, it will be a surprisingly fun treat, and will help spread some fall festive cheer amongst your friends, neighbors and work colleagues.
Here is an example of a poem that has been used to spread the Boo cheer:
The air is cool, the season fall,
Soon Halloween will come to all.
Ghosts and goblins, spooks galore...
Tricky witches at your door.
The spooks are after things to do,
In fact a spook brought this "Boo" to you!
The excitement comes when friends like you,
Copy this note and make it two.
We'll all have smiles upon our faces,
No one will know who "BOO"ed who's places!
Just two short days to work your spell,
Keep it secret, hide it well.
Please join the fun, the seasons here .
Just spread these "BOO's" and Halloween cheer.
