Hi Minnesota momma's, i need your help! We live in Michigan, but my SD lives in Minnesota
(twin cities area, i can get more specific if it would help), and we
are going to visit her the weekend of Oct. 6. I want to make matching
Halloween costumes for the girls and dress them up while we are there.
Of course, this would be more fun if we had somewhere to go! I've been
googling Halloween events all morning and can't find anything that early
in October. I was hoping maybe one of the malls would be doing
something, or the zoo or local apple orchards/pumpkin patches. However,
everything I find is for later in the month. I understand this, but here
in MI, there are a couple events that go all month long for the LO's
for Halloween. I keep hoping to find something similar in MN. I'm not
sure if I'm just not looking in the right spots, and was hoping to find
someone local who could tell me if there are any events going on that
weekend. Basically anything Halloween related that a 4 year old would
find fun. If anyone from MN has any suggestions for me, I would really
appreciate it! thanks!

Re: xp: Halloween in MN
my read shelf:
Valleyfair (ValleySCARE!) and possibly Buck Hill are the only two places I can think of that might be costume events that early in the season.
Otherwise, I'd just stick to the apple orchards/farms... Afton Apple Orchard, Aamodt's Apple Orchard, Pleasant Valley Tree Farm (outside of Menomonie), or Pine Tree Apple Orchard. All are family owned which makes going there even better...
As one PP said, Valleyfair (Shakopee, MN) has Planet Spooky which is geared towards younger kids!
The Harvest Festival & Scarecrow Alley are going on at the MN Zoo starting October 6th.
Shafer Corn Maze
Oktoberfest - Osseo
Emma Krumbee's Scarecrow Festival
Planet Spooky at Valleyfair
There's a corn maze, petting zoo, pumpkins, etc. event place in Champlin/Brooklyn park border, at hwy 169 & 109th ave. that is open Sat & Sundays all through Sept/Oct. They have a giant slide, corn pit, a pumpkin slinger (super cool!) and all kinds of kid stuff.
