By Emily Papa, Macaroni Kid South Hills of Pittsburgh Publisher October 26, 2020

Halloween is going to look a little different this year, but in this case, different is going to be AMAZING!  

Let's pay it forward and flood our community with kindness this Halloween with BOO BASKETS! Macaroni Kid is officially starting off the BOO'ing by distributing 150 BOO Baskets & Bags across the South Hills of Pittsburgh. We can't wait to see how far they reach! 

What is a Boo Basket?  

It's simply a little Halloween treat that you leave on a neighbors' doorstep to surprise them! There are no rules to how big or small it has to be, just an act of kindness to bring a smile to someone's face. Check out No Tricks, Just Treats: 9 Ideas to Make Your Own Boo Basket for different ideas on what you can put in YOUR boo basket!


How does it work? 

If you received a Boo Basket: 

  1. Enjoy your treat and have fun trying to figure out who left it for you

  2. Tape the "We've Been Boo'd" sign on your door or front window

  3. Print out 2 copies of the "You've Been Boo'd" page and the "We've Been Boo'd" page and make 2 Boo Baskets to give to your neighbors or friends (printable below)

  4.  Deliver your baskets STEALTHFULLY to 2 neighbors who haven't been Boo'd yet 

      5. Be sure to use the hashtags #MKBooBag #macaronikidsouthhills #mackidsouthhills and tag us @MKSouthHills (on Facebook), @MacaroniKidSouthHills (on IG), or @PGHMacaroniMama (on Twitter) with photos of your Boo Basket's & Bags for your chance to be featured on our social media!!!
