How do families actually use it?
How do families actually use it?
Read the book together to start it off, usually on the first of October, then hide Bones somewhere new each morning for the kids to find. Some families pose him doing something silly, some let the children hide him for the grown ups. There is no right way, which is why it turns into your tradition rather than a set of rules.
Is it too scary for younger children?
Is it too scary for younger children?
Not at all. Bones has big friendly eyes and a smile, and there is a little heart on his chest as a reminder that kindness beats candy. He is rated for ages 4 and up and most parents describe him as cute rather than spooky.
How does the glow in the dark work?
How does the glow in the dark work?
Leave him somewhere sunny for a while and the glow charges up on its own. There are no batteries and nothing to switch on, so at bedtime he simply glows, which for most children is the best part of the whole thing.

Will the joints break with daily posing?
The 14 joints are snap fit, so limbs are meant to come apart and click back together. If an arm pops off during play it goes straight back on, which is part of the fun rather than a fault.
Is this just for one Halloween?
Is this just for one Halloween?
The whole point is that it comes back. Pack Bones and the book away in November and get them out again next October, the same way families do with Christmas decorations. That is what makes it a tradition instead of a toy.

Where Will He Turn Up Tomorrow?
14 snap fit joints mean Bones can be hanging off a door handle, sat in the fruit bowl or face down in a pile of flour. That daily hunt is what turns October from one night into a whole month kids look forward to.
It Starts With A Story
A toy on its own gets played with for a week. Reading the 30 page storybook together first is what gives Bones a reason to be in your house, and it is the difference between a Halloween toy and something your kids ask about again next October.
