Halloween will fall on the weekend this year. It’s a great time to bond with your grandchildren and give them a little scary yet a fun experience this Halloween weekend. My all time favorite Halloweens have been with my grandchildren. We like to start the holiday with a trip to the Nashville Zoo where we enjoy “Boo at the Zoo”.

While reading a few pages of the Wonderous Ink website, I didn’t have any hesitation. I ordered online and requested a copy.
