Review by Heather Garcia 

Instead of saltine crackers I used graham crackers. I did not use any candy eyes because my store was out of them. Because I did not have candy eyes I used extra Halloween sprinkles and the kids loved it all the same. This is something I can see being a tradition in our house for every Halloween.
