10/1/11: Kids Halloween Events Coming Up In And Around Boston

I have posted holiday event posts in the past and gotten good reviews so I thought I would share with my readers again some Halloween Family Friendly activities coming up.
Of course check out your libraries too as there are many Halloween Storytimes, Parties, Make and Takes, etc going on:
