Spooky Little Joys

For us, the joy of Halloween is all about playing! Remembering the child who loved to dress in Mom’s bras and hats, and wear Dad’s underpants over their pajamas like Superman. It’s about real world fun and connection, preparing feasts, making treats, planning tricks, hitting the streets.

We love to bring out the pumpkins as soon as October rolls around, and with the Zambezi Joy Society gang, painting Chitenge patterns on our big round pumpkins to place at the door is just about the most fun a grown up and a kid can have! Yes, some of us in the team find it challenging, but we invite you to take a look at our painting kits and online classes for a little help. Browse down below for free mask and placemat cutouts for your celebrations.

Halloween Cutouts Just For You

Print out Chitenge placemats for your spooky season meals! Share the holiday with friends and family; tricks, treats and pumpkin painting.
