Here’s my last Halloween story for Susanna Hill’s Halloweensie competition.
If you didn’t get to the first post, the rules are: Create a Halloween story for kids twelve and under that is less than 100 words AND must include the words: howl, cauldron, and shiver (any form of the word will do).
THE PICTURE
By Kaitlyn Leann Sanchez
Every year the pizza parlor puts on a Halloween Cup. The winning soccer team gets their picture on the wall!
I HAVE to have my picture on that wall! But, our team usually chases butterflies during the game. We’re never gonna win…
I know!
I pull out the cauldron that came with my costume.
A sharp wind howls when I sprinkle the potion onto my teammates. They shiver.
As the photographer takes the other team’s picture, I kick the grass.
I guess it takes more than a potion to win…Maybe our team should start—Hey look! A butterfly! Gotta go!

Aw. That’s adorable, Kaitlyn, and so accurate! My son used to do cartwheels in the outfield during games. Ha ha. Love your entry. 🙂

You know what sucks? I forgot to post this for the contest. I know right? But still so fun and glad you can relate. My daughter is only 2, but I definitely did this with my friends as a kid haha

Oh, too bad. Did Susanna announce a winner? There were so many good stories, I didn’t get to read them all. I need to head back there. 🙂
