So Many Halloween Costumes, So Little Time

For those of you out there who are feeling anxious about picking the perfect Halloween costume or who don't want to be stuck with just one option for the whole Halloween season, I have some excellent Halloween party advice. Pick a bunch of costumes! It's no fun having to go to every Halloween party in the same costume again and again, so why not narrow your Halloween costume list down to a few favorites? That way, you can be a new person at each party and you won't get sick of being a witch, a ghost or Britney Spears.

No Halloween Costumes Allowed in School? Don’t Despair!

Hi Penelope,
My daughter’s school has just sent a letter home to parents saying that costumes won’t be allowed in school this year for some kind of safety reason. My daughter is really upset about it, and I was wondering if you had any advice on how to take her mind off it?
