The Spooky Season is here! And I am here for the Spooky Season! I am, admittedly, not a super “Yay, Halloween!” person. I mostly feel like adults tend to overdo this holiday and get more into it than the kids. That being said, it has recently come to my attention that my nearly 8-year-old is VERY into Halloween. Thus, I suppose, I am very into Halloween on his behalf. So we’ve been doing all things Halloween around here. One of those things? Getting crafty with this Witches Brew Bark Kids Halloween Recipe!
My kids are basically obsessed with anything creepy and spooky these days. We watch The Nightmare Before Christmas for 6-months out of the year. Ya know, because it’s basically a Halloween and Christmas movie all in one. So we basically are living all things funky in this house.
Why we get crafty!
Let’s be real — kids don’t need a lot to get excited. Something as easy as a quick and simple Halloween craft is enough to please them for days! I tend to stock up on craft supplies at the end of every season, knowing that the following year we will use them.
What You’ll Need
This recipe is easy. If you’ve ever made chocolate bark before, you’ll know that it’s simple and you can get super creative. For this recipe in particular, you’ll need an assortment of chocolate melts. I buy my Wilton Candy Melts on Amazon. They’re inexpensive and ship free with Prime! For this I use lavender, turquoise, and lime green.
I also recommend using gummy worms (because they are ‘creepy’), candy eyeballs, and candy corn. You’ll need a baking sheet, three microwave safe bowls, and parchment paper. That’s all you need for this easy peasy recipe!

That is cute! Is that really for Halloween? Well, as long as the kids love it right? Great job!
Nice! That really got me excited. Maybe it’s the kid in me being attracted to those bright colors, or maybe because they are a reminder of fun days ahead.

I’d love this if I were a kid. I really would. It looks so fun to eat. Also I like gummy worms. Hihi.
This is such a great idea! I love how colorful it is and how fun it seems to make!
How cute is this! At first I thought it might be complicated to make as I imagined the base was white chocolate. But with candy melts – that’s so much easier to make. And children can have a lot of fun designing their own.
