Cruel Mom Picks says Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween, cool parents!

Looking for the original "I gave you life, you give me your Reese's" Halloween meme? Well, here it is. Because we wrote it. Even if you see it out there with someone else's name at the bottom (ahem).     Happy Halloween to all the cool parents out there. Or anyone who has spent countless hours of their lives putting together costumes that come home ripped and stained with little chocolate fingerprints. Enjoy that candy stash. We can diet tomorrow. -Liz, Kristen, and Team Cool Mom Picks PS Still need last minute Halloween help? We're here for you.

Q&A with children’s book author Shannon Hale

Shannon Hale is the bestselling author behind The Princess in Black series. It's a favorite early chapter book series for kids ages 5–8 and boys love it as much as girls do. Her newest book, Princess in Black and the Trick or Treating Trouble, comes out just in time for Halloween. We talked with her about it as part of our Q&A author series and asked about a few of her favorite things too.
