Once upon a time in the whimsical town of Sweetville, Halloween was just around the corner, and the Cookie Adventure Playground was getting ready for its most exciting event of the year: the Spooktacular Cookie Bash! As the leaves turned vibrant shades of orange and gold, the playground transformed into a magical realm of cookie-themed Halloween fun. Giant gingerbread men decorated the entrance, and the sweet scent of sugar cookies wafted through the air, inviting everyone in for a day of adventure. **The Cookie Maze** Families began their journey through the Cookie Maze, where paths were lined with candy corn and gummy worms. Inside, little goblins and ghouls searched for hidden treats and spooky surprises. The maze twisted and turned, revealing towering cookie ghosts and delightful chocolate chip witches that offered sweet hints and rewards. **Cookie Decorating Station** Next, everyone gathered at the Cookie Decorating Station, where kids donned chef hats and aprons. With an array of colourful icing, sprinkles, and edible glitter, they transformed plain cookies into spooky masterpieces. From monstrous mummies to adorable pumpkin faces, creativity flourished. Each child has a box of tasty creations to share (or sneakily eat) later. **Monster Mash Dance Party** As the sun set, the playground came alive with the Monster Mash Dance Party. Families boogied alongside cookie-costumed characters, dancing to fun Halloween tunes. Laughter filled the air as everyone joined the conga line, wiggling and jiggling under glowing, spooky lights. The night's highlight was the best-dressed costume contest, where kids showed off their cookie-themed outfits to win a year’s supply of cookies! With fireworks, camp fire, marshmallows, slime and cooking
