Boo Your Neighbor and Spread the Joy

Details Inside

By Krystal Farnell, Publisher, Macaroni Kid Monroe - West Monroe October 7, 2021

Halloween is around the corner and it is going to be AMAZING!  

Let's pay it forward and flood our community with kindness this Halloween with BOO BASKETS!

What is a Boo Basket?  

It's simply a little Halloween treat that you leave on a neighbors doorstep to surprise them! There are no rules to how big or small it has to be, just an act of kindness to bring a smile to someone's face. 

Macaroni Kid Monroe-West Monroe is starting the trend in Monroe and West Monroe with 150 Boo Baskets being delivered starting October 8th!

How does it work? 

If you received a Boo Basket: 

  1. Enjoy your treat and have fun trying to figure out who left it for you

  2. Tape the "We've Been Boo'd" sign on your door or front window

  3. Print out 2 copies of the "You've Been Boo'd" page and the "We've Been Boo'd" page and make 2 Boo Baskets to give to your neighbors or friends (printable below)

  4.  Deliver your baskets STEALTHFULLY to 2 neighbors who haven't been Boo'd yet 

      5. Be sure to use the hashtags #boomonroewestmonroe #macaronikidmonroewestmonroe #MKMonroeWestMonroe and tag us @MacaroniKidMonroeWestMonroe (on Facebook), @MacKidMonroe (on IG) for your chance to be featured on our social media!!!
