You've been Boo-ed!!!



Every year my niece and nephew, 7 & 9, "Boo" their friends.  I thought it was such a cute idea!!!  Last year my 4 year old son started this tradition with his friends and we will continue it this year.  It is such a cute idea.  You write a poem, attach it to a little bag of treats and leave a sign saying "Boo".  Then that person that was Boo-ed or Ghosted in some towns leaves that sign on their front door or front window and can't be Boo-ed or Ghosted again:) And must continue it on.  Sort of like a chain letter.


Here is the directions that should be printed out to go along with the treat bag and "Boo" sign & poem:



You have been “Boo-e’d”! Please keep it going by following these directions:
1. Enjoy your treat.
2. Place the BOO sign on your front door or visible in a window.
3. Within 2 days, make two treats, two copies of this note, & two BOO signs.
4. Secretly deliver to 2 friends without a BOO .
5. Keep an eye on nearby front doors to see how far and fast it spreads by Halloween!


Here is a pdf I found of the sign:

Here is the poem:


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 to you!!!
The treats that came with this short note,
Are yours to keep, enjoy them both.
The excitement comes when friends like you,
Will copy it &; make it two,
We'll all have smiles upon our faces,
No one will know who "BOO"ed whoses 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"; Halloween cheer.



Here is a pdf of the poem & directions I found also:)

Thanks for mentioning our site!

Just wanted to point out that it's best not to post links directly to files offered by our site. They have to be moved quite frequently as our server needs dictate--so may not work.

Better to post directly to our printable's pages--they will always have a link to the resource you're looking for:
