Start planning those Halloween parties now with these adorable treats for kids.

Ghostly Pretzel Sticks

Dip pretzel sticks in melted white chocolate about three inches.  While pretzels are still wet, arrange mini chocolate chips to create eyes and a mouth.  Let dry until firm, about 30 minutes.

Chocolate-Dipped Rats

Line baking sheet with waxed paper.  Trim one side of strawberries so they can lay flat on one side.  Inset 2 sliced almonds about 1 inch from pointed end of strawberries to make the ears on the rat.

Insert a fork into the wide end of the strawberry. Holding the strawberry on fork, spoon the melted bittersweet chocolate over the fruit, allowing access chocolate to drip off.  Place on baking sheet.  While chocolate is still wet, arrange two slivered almonds to create eyes, then use licorice on the wide end to create a tail.  Chill until firm.

Mummy Dogs

2 8-oz cans of crescent rolls

14  5 to 6 inch hotdogs

mustard

Heat oven at 375.

Unroll each can of crescent rolls, then separate at perforations, creating 4 rectangles from each can. With scissors, cut each rectangle into 7 long strips, making a total of 28 strips from each can of dinner rolls (56 strips total).

Wrap 4 strips of dough around each hot dog to look like bandages, stretching dough slightly to completely cover hot dog. About 1/2-inch from one end of each hot dog, separate the bandages so hot dog shows through for the “face.” Place wrapped hot dogs on two baking sheets and bake until until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Using mustard, draw features on face.
