Idea for how to turn down a high school dance date

My son was asked twice in the same day for the same girl's choice dance. We have always told our kids to go with whomever asked first. He felt bad that he had to say no to one of them. This is what we came up with to answer.

He hand wrote a note that says he is "blue" that he cannot go to the dance with her because he had already been asked.

Halloween Treats

Just thought I would share a couple Halloween goodies I made.

I made these little coffins for the ladies I go visiting teaching to.

Then I made a bigger version of the candy box I have made before. I actually made this for my son to answer for a dance. He put candy in it and said: It would be a "TREAT" to go to girl's choice with you.

Thanks for looking!

creative ways to ask/answer for date dances

My son came up with his own idea of how to ask. It was kinda funny. He left this on her doorstep. You lifted to see his name.

"Lettuce Turnip the Beet at homecoming."

She answered really cute and with the same idea he started.

Homecoming idea to ask

Homecoming is coming up. I paper pieced the owl on here. I told him to write "GUESS 'HOO' WANTS TO TAKE YOU TO HOMECOMING". He didn't want to leave the W off. :)

He put the letters of the alphabet in some balloons. The letters that spell his name he put in a different color. 

School Dance Ask/Answer idea

Red and White is the last dance of the school year here. Since it was close to Easter when my son asked, we decided to go with an Easter theme:

She answered back...its cute, but I had no where to keep it so it went back to the store it came from:

This CHICK would love to go to Red and White with you.

Girls choice ask and answer

The girl that asked my son loves the movie FROZEN. She used the song as her way to ask. There was a trail of rose petals that led him around the house. He first found the snowman sign, then it led to the girls choice sign, then he was led to a flower and heart and her name. We replied using her theme of the snowman from FROZEN and put Mtn Dew with it.

Girls Choice ask and answer

One son was asked like this. I like the mustache idea and we may reuse it another way.

He decorated her room and put the You blew me away and used balloons and bubble gum.

My other son was asked with a video, and he got some dum dum suckers and put a note that said, I would be a dum dum to not go to girls choice with you.

School Dance ask/answer ideas

Here is another idea to ask and answer someone for a school dance.

The girl brought over a jar of pickles with this note on it.

He did not want to eat the pickles and he had already figured out who it was...but when he was turning the jar around to see if she had put her name inside, we found it taped to the bottom...so he never had to open them :)

The dance is a Valentine's Dance, so he answered her with a conversation heart

I cut two hearts the same size, I sewed them mostly all the way together and then put candy inside with a note that said "It would be a treat to go to Girl's Choice with you". I then finished sewing it closed. We glued the YES on after, but I would recommend putting it on before you put candy inside.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope these ideas are helping someone.

School Dance ask/answer ideas

Heres another idea that we used this year. (Make sure they open the box INSIDE a building, so the balloons dont fly away)

Inside the box are a bunch of pink balloons with pig faces drawn on them...so when she opens the box, the pigs "fly" out. We attached a note to the string of one of the "pigs" that asked her to go to the dance.

This is how she answered

The note says that she would be tickled "Pink" to go to the dance with him. It was full of pink things

Thanks for stopping by. If you like that I post these ideas, leave me a comment and Ill be sure to add more.

School dance ask/answer ideas

I thought that if I posted these, it may help someone else (like me) who goes to the internet to help my kids find creative ways to ask/answer for a school dance.

I thought this was cute. A girl asked my son this way.

He simply took the YES rock back to her to answer.

School dance ask/answer ideas

Brady asked when I wasnt home, so I dont have pictures of his asking. He wanted to ask by getting Crush soda and saying I'd be "crush"ed if you didnt go to the dance with me, but he couldnt find the soda, so he got some cry baby candy and said I would be a Cry Baby if you didnt go to the dance with me.

This is her response.

I think he unwrapped 4 boxes inside of boxes. There were pop rocks as he unwrapped too.

In the last box was rocks. The note says: Id be dumber than a box of rocks if I didnt say YES!
