Halloween party packs, cooler than candy

Hi, I am Joseph. Halloween is coming and grown-ups keep asking what to put in a classroom bag that is not another pile of wrappers.

My answer is a Lab party pack. Ten mini creatures I invented, bagged and ready, $40. They go in prize boxes, classroom treats, and the bowl by the door when you run out of the good chocolate.

What is in the pack

Ten of my minis. Wiggle snakes, pocket dragons, little weirdos from the Mini Mart. Printed at home in Texas, one piece each, no batteries, no magnets. Charge a Glow Axolotl under a lamp and it glows after the porch light goes off.

If you want one bigger toy instead of a bag of minis, the Glow Axolotl is $16 and it is the most Halloween thing I make. The Crystal Dragon is $22 if you want something that looks like candy you cannot eat.

Last market the gacha sold out before lunch. $5 a turn.

Where to get them before October 31

Shop any day: shop.texastoylab.com.

In person, catch me at Kids Market Leander on October 3 at Lakewood Park, 2 to 6 PM. That is the last stall on the calendar before Halloween. If you want a pack held, email joseph@texastoylab.com and tell a grown-up to write Halloween on it.

Rules, because a grown-up will ask

These are toys for ages 3 and up. Small parts. Not for babies. Not for mouths. Full notes on the toy safety page.

I do not do walk-in storefront hours. Online, or the stall. That is the Lab.

If you want a classroom quote bigger than ten, email me. Dad reads those with me.

See you before the candy runs out.
