Halloween Wish List 2021

The Mommies Reviews

Halloween is right around the Corner and now that Charlie is older he has outgrown Trick or Treating and dressing up but I still like to get Gifts for Charlie so he doesn’t feel left out. As I looked online I begin to make a Halloween Wish List 2021 for my family. I put the list together I thought you might want to check out some of the Gifts I picked out not only for Charlie but David and myself as well as our friends and family.

 Sleuth & Solve: Spooky Victor Escandell

Test your wits in this creepy collection of horror-themed mini-mysteries, a follow-up to Sleuth & Solve!

How does one boy discover the lair of Frankenstein’s Monster? What is the identity of the Werewolf who torments an isolated village? And how do two sisters escape the vengeful Loch Ness Monster?

Welcome to the world of Sleuth & Solve: Spooky, where creepy clues are hidden in every detail and clever twists put your wits to the test. These mind-bending mini-mysteries inspired by classic creepy characters feature familiar fiends as well as terrifying new tales of ghosts, witches, and more! Solving this suite of spooky puzzles takes keen observation, strong logic, and lots of creative thinking. Play solo or with friends, collecting points as you crack each compelling case, decode the solution using a clever cryptograph, and reveal whose sleuthing skills reign supreme!

SCARY STORIES ARE IRRESISTIBLE: From Monster-themed birthday parties to Dungeons & Dragons, Stranger Things, and Monsters, Inc., it’s clear that readers of all ages have a perennial predilection for all things Monstrous and scary. These tales are perfect for reading alone or together, under the covers or in the dark, around the crackling of a campfire . . . as long as you can crack the case before it’s too late. BOO!

EVERYONE LOVES A GOOD MYSTERY: From Encyclopedia Brown to Sherlock Holmes to Clue, mysteries transfix, engage, and entertain! Following the previous two books in the Sleuth & Solve series, this latest smart, age-appropriate take on mysteries for kids will quickly become a family favorite.

A-GAME-IN-A-BOOK: This engaging narrative formula incorporates both a game (players earn points for discerning each answer) and an opportunity to decrypt and decode the clever solutions to each puzzle, adding opportunities for interactivity and upping the stakes of the reading experience.

REINFORCES LOGICAL REASONING SKILLS: These clever mysteries are solved by way of deduction, inference, and logical reasoning, all of which are critical thinking skills crucial to young readers’ intellectual development both in and outside of the classroom.

IDEAL FOR RELUCTANT READERS: With a comic-esque style, unique narrative approach, quirky scenarios, and a compelling mystery/”scary stories” theme, this book packs loads of reluctant reader appeal.

Perfect for:

• Fans of scary and spooky stories
• Fans of brainteasers and puzzles

Marvin’s Monster Diary 3: Trouble with Friends (But I Get By, Big Time!) An ST4 Mindfulness Book for Kids (5) by Dr. Raun Melmed

School’s out and Summer camp’s in! When Marvin and his friends meet Joey, a Lake Monster with a loud mouth and few manners, it seems that Marvin is the only kid in Camp who will be his friend. And Marvin’s friendship with the Lake Monster is causing ripples among his other friends.

No one wants to be around the kid who cuts in line, or talks over them, or tells them what he really thinks about their Art project. But Joey secretly wants only one thing: friends. Can Marvin help Joey learn how to make—and keep—friends? 

Marvin’s hilarious doodles and diary entries chronicle his delightful adventures, misadventures, and eventual triumph in a funny, relatable way. It’s the one series on ADHD and associated issues that kids will actually want to read!
