"CHOCOLATE JACKOLANTERNS"
Depending on how many people you are making Chocolate Jackolanterns for, all you need is six to ten oranges and chocolate ice cream (ice cream can be substituted with other favorite ice creams) a knife or pumpkin carving kit and a spoon.
1. Cut top off oranges as you would a top of a pumpkin.
2. With spoon clean out inside of orange the best you can.
3. Carve out your favorite funny or scary jackolantern face.
4. Fill your orange/jackolantern with chocolate ice cream.
5. Put your "CHOCOLATE JACKOLANTERNS" in the freezer until you are about to eat them.

COOKIE PAINTING AND LOLLIE GHOSTS:
We have done a carnival for as long as I have been a teacher. The two favorite booths the children love are the cookie painting and the Lollie-ghosts. As an elementary teacher that works in a school with 4 year olds up to 12 year olds the activities must be flexible.
Cookie painting involves plain sugar cookies, frosting of seasonal color or just plain white, raisin, marshmallows, nuts, licorice strings, coconut, pretzel sticks, chocolate chips sprinkles, and anything that could be used to create a face on the frosted cookie. To assist with the cleanup have all ingredients in a sandwich bag and place the frosting in a tiny cup with a Popsicle stick or on a spoon. This way when the student is done creating their cookie they place it in their bag to save for later, Yah Right!
The Lollie-Ghost is perfect for little ones, but the big ones always stop by! You take a lollie pop and cover it with a piece of tissue paper and tie it at the base of the candy with a piece of black or white yarn. The students can paint their ghosts eyes and face with a marker, tempera paint, tube paint or even glitter. (Ear cleaners work great and there will be little or no extra mess.) The student then takes home their own Lollie-ghost !
Good luck, I hope you can use these!

"Eighteen Flavors" from "Where the Sidewalk Ends" by Shel Silverstein, Harper and Row, 1974
In this popular book of poetry you will find a poem about an ice cream cone with 18 flavors. You can buy most of the flavors at the grocery store or ice cream shop, but you might want to try making your own. Here are two different recipes for homemade ice cream. You need an ice cream maker for one, and just a freezer for the other.
Pumpkin Ice Cream
1-1/2 cups sugar
1 large egg
2 cups whipping cream
1 cup pumpkin
2 cups half-and-half
1/8 teaspoon allspice
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon vanilla
rock-salt
10 lb. bag of ice
Beat sugar and egg together. Add remaining ingredients, except rock salt and ice. Pour into freezer part of the ice cream maker. Alternate ice and rock salt in container that surrounds the freezer. Let the children take turns cranking the ice cream maker until ice cream freezes. Replace ice and rock salt as the ice melts.
LEMON ICE CREAM
2 cups whipping cream
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
Stir together cream and sugar. Add lemon juice and lemon peel. Pour into a small cake pan. Freeze about 4-1/2 hours, or until firm.
