\nWe\u2019ve been hearing this rhyme a lot this week, in the run up
\nto my little Junior Infants school Halloween party. They joined up with their
\nbuddies from 6th<\/sup> Class yesterday for some singing and traditional
\nHalloween fun and games. I don\u2019t think he had been too impressed by the apple
\nbobbing though, as doesn\u2019t like to get his face we <\/b> As well as singing we\u2019ve
\nbeen enjoying lots of Halloween inspired arts and crafts activities both at home
\nand in school. The boys brought home to lovely artwork yesterday from school to
\nadd to our existing display, including my eldest son\u2019s \u201cFrankenstein Collage,\u201d which
\nI had been helping his class to make earlier in the week.<\/div>\n
