๐ BOO Bags Are Back for 2026! ๐
Put your business directly into the hands of hundreds of local families this Halloween.
Macaroni KID BOO Bags are returning for another season of Halloween fun! This October, we will distribute surprise-filled BOO Bags to families throughout all three of our local Macaroni KID regions.
Each participating business receives a unique opportunity to connect with local parents through a combination of in-home promotion, online visibility, newsletter exposure, social media content, and placement in our annual Fall and Halloween Guide.
Our three publications collectively reach more than 11,000 local subscribers and families looking for activities, services, events, and businesses in their communities.
๐ Three Regions. Hundreds of Local Families.
We are BOO-ing families throughout the following communities:
Macaroni KID Attleboro-Mansfield-Taunton
Attleboro, Berkley, Dighton, Mansfield, North Attleboro, Norton, Plainville, Rehoboth, Seekonk, Somerset, Swansea, and Taunton

๐ป What Are BOO Bags?
BOO Bags are surprise Halloween treat bags delivered directly to at least 150 local families in each participating region.
Each bag is filled with kid-friendly treats, promotional items, Halloween surprises, and information from participating local businesses. Families are encouraged to keep the fun going by BOO-ing friends and neighbors, helping participating businesses gain even more community visibility.
Unlike a traditional online advertisement that may disappear with a scroll, BOO Bag sponsors become part of a memorable family experience inside local homes.
