Knock Knock! Boo’s There? – Halloween Family Fun

October 30, 2022 by Baton Rouge Family Fun

On Thursday, Oct. 27th I took my boys to the Knock Knock! Boo’s There? at Knock Knock Children’s Museum. It turned out to be fun Halloween-themed party and adventure for the whole family; and the decorations were on point, prefect for photo ops.

Knock Knock! Boo’s There?

Knock Knock! Boo’s There?

Each area had a different Halloween surprise; there was so much to do, we didn’t get to everything. The usual centers were also open and ready for the children to learn through play.

Knock Knock! Boo’s There?

As we walked around the museum, there were treat stations so the kids could trick or treat as they made their way through activities. They gave out popits and other fun surprises. 

Knock Knock! Boo’s There?

Jack did a science experiment in the kitchen area while Jacob cooked up some delicious Halloween foods. The kitchen was decorated so festively and included Halloween menus. 

Knock Knock! Boo’s There?

In the Art Garden, the children decorated their very own pumpkins exactly how they wanted. It was hilarious and heart-warming. 

Knock Knock! Boo’s There?

The dry ice bubbles were definitely a highlight. Who doesn’t love bubbles?!? We spent a significant amount of time with the bubbles. I may, or may not have, popped a few of my own. 

Knock Knock! Boo’s There?

One of my absolute favorite areas was a fortune-telling station. Jack’s card reminded him that we can create our own happiness. 

There was a pumpkin village area too but I’m not sure we’ve reached the independent scissor stage yet. 

SPOOK-TACULAR ACTIVITIES THROUGHOUT THE MUSEUM INCLUDED:
Art Garden – Pumpkin Painting
Big Back Yard – Bubble and Fog fun for an eerie good time
Crawbaby – Love Your Little Monster
Paws And Claws – Animal Costume Contest
Bubble Playground – Ooey Gooey Smokey Bubbles with Knock Knock’s Mad Scientist
I See Food Cafe – Magical Potions 101 with Julia the Good Witch
Trick or Treating in select Learning Zones
Closing Costume Parade

Overall, a fun time was had by all. We highly recommend this Halloween celebration!

Melanie is a wife, mom, daughter, and friend who loves adventures with her two sons. Originally from Mississippi but fell in love with Louisiana over a decade ago. This was the first place she felt that everyone was able to express themselves artistically.

Melanie enjoys photography, watercolor painting, and creating from nature. Nothing makes her happier than a family cuddle and planning for future adventures.

2020 TRICK-OR-TREAT HOURS | Halloween Events

October 15, 2020 by Baton Rouge Family Fun

Find 2021 Trick-or-Treat times in our updated post here! 

 

Kids of all ages can’t wait to go trick-or-treating on Halloween and we finally have your 2020 TRICK-OR-TREAT HOURS and guidelines plus Halloween events happening in Baton Rouge and beyond! Because 2020 feels like a long episode of The Twilight Zone, many have been wondering what trick-or-treating will look like this year. Traditional Halloween activities are fun, but some can increase the risk of getting or spreading COVID-19.

“East Baton Rouge Parish is on the right path to slowing the spread of the coronavirus, and we must work together to ensure we continue on this path,” said Mayor-President Sharon Weston Broome in a statement.

Make trick-or-treating safer

  • Avoid direct contact with trick-or-treaters.
  • Give out treats outdoors, if possible.
  • Set up a station with individually bagged treats for kids to take.
  • Wash hands before handling treats.
  • Wear a mask.

While every effort has been made to ensure this information is accurate, we encourage you to verify that all details are correct and have not changed. If you have information on a Trunk-or-Treat that we missed, please let us know!

BATON ROUGE TRICK-OR-TREATING TIMES | TRUNK-OR-TREAT

October 20, 2019 by Baton Rouge Family Fun

Baton Rouge has many Halloween events for family-friendly fun leading up to the big night.  Oct. 31st is just around the corner. One thing parents need to be aware of, especially parents who are new to Baton Rouge or new to having kids trick-or-treating, is that most areas have specific trick-or-treat hours.  And in many communities, they only get two “official” hours to trick or treat. 

Aside from the Baton Rouge area annual neighborhood trick-or-treating fun, there are many other trick-or-treat events happening around town. To help you make the most of this spooktacular season, we’ve provided a roundup of family-friendly Halloween events! We also have a Kids Eat Free on Halloween list here.

Enjoy this Halloween with your family and friends, Baton Rouge!

While every effort has been made to ensure this information is accurate, we encourage you to verify that all details are correct and have not changed. If you have information on a Trunk-or-Treat that we missed, please let us know!
