A dance is cool – there should be lots of Halloween dance music CD’s out there. Just do a search. Also, do a search for cool Halloween food – serving strange or gross-looking items would be cool. I once saw somebody make a sort of cake that was in the shape of a body part and when you cut into it “blood” gushed everywhere. I once make fake blood from white Kayro syrup and red food coloring. It sticks to things and runs really well – I used it in a mock-murder scene for a haunted house I worked on.

Glow-in-the-dark items (rave sort of items) would be popular at a Halloween dance. Oriental trading has tons of them, too.

Games would be alright, but they have to be really cool to appeal to 6th graders. Do a search; I bet you can come up with something.

I saw the toy soliders in Disneyland recently. Their outfits looked really easy to make. Combat green, spray painted in army green, real plastic, lacquered look and big bits of cardboard stuck to their feet for when they walked.

It would be such fun, woody, buzz, mr.potatohead and all very, very doo-able.

*Looks forward to Halloween to put ideas into practise :)*

Sorry, Lol, I didn’t read it right at all! I’m sure your daughter and her friends will love a disco, you could also have some ‘bingo’ with spot prizes.
