A few months ago I was invited to join PBS Kids Sprout’s Band of Bloggers.  As a HUGE fan of both PBS and Sprout this is a natural connection for me…and I hope to share some fun contests, games, new shows and tons of Sprout happenings with you!

CALLING ALL HOMEMADE HALLOWEEN COSTUMES!

RIGHT NOW over at Sprout they are having a Sprouterrific Halloween Costume Contest!

Your family could win a Sprouterrific gift basket filled with goodies from Sprout friends and they may show your photos on TV!

Parents, all you have to do is, upload a photo of your child dressed in their latest homemade costume creation – a fairy, a pirate, or their favorite Sprout character!

There are more details about the contest here.

Since I wasn’t blogging last year at this time, I’m sharing with you myBuddy & Pinkie’s Halloween costumes from last year.  (Obviously these are NOT handmade…*sigh* some year I’ll eventually have time to do that)

Visit Sprout Online for a variety of different activies, videos and MORE!

Don’t forget to follow @KenSproutDad on Twitter for more Sprout fun…and you can always send him your child’s name, age, city/state if you have an upcoming Birthday in your house!  He’ll help you get their name on TV, on their Birthday!

Did you pick out what your children are being for Halloween yet?
