My kids are getting older so it is getting tougher to scare them for Halloween with kid shows. Last weekend, they wanted to watch a “real” scary movie and since they survived a trip to our local haunted cornmaze, we agreed. Big mistake! They lasted all of five minutes and begged us to turn off the movie. As good parents do… we laughed and laughed and laughed. But we did agree to turn off the movie.

If you’re not into totally scaring the daylights out of your kids, Netflix Canada has some recommendations for movies and shows that will get you warmed up for October 31st!

And… If you’re still at a loss as to what to dress up your favourite little Netflixer, here are a few easy step-by-step tutorials to get ready for the big night.
