Kicking Off Halloween Fun at Tadpole in the South End 🎃🍭

This past Friday, we had the sweetest time celebrating fall fun at Tadpole in Boston’s South End! Families gathered for an afternoon full of creativity, treats, and seasonal sneak peeks, and the kids were absolutely buzzing with excitement.

🍬 Candy Creations with Madeline’s Candy Store

The highlight for many little ones was the chance to play candy chef with Madeline’s Candy Store. From rolling out colorful sweets to stringing together candy necklaces and bracelets, every child left with sticky fingers and big smiles. The hands-on fun was as joyful as it was delicious!

🎨 Face Paint, Bikes, and Fall Fashion

The fun didn’t stop with candy. Kids lined up for face painting, showing off everything from butterflies to superheroes. Families also got a chance to test ride Tadpole’s new bikes—perfect for getting those last warm rides in before the cool fall air takes over. Inside, the shop unveiled their new fall clothing arrivals—cozy, stylish pieces that had parents just as excited as their kids.

🐈⬛ Halloween Jellycats Have Arrived!

Of course, no fall kick-off would be complete without Halloween gear. Tadpole’s Halloween Jellycats were a hit—adorably spooky plush friends that had everyone feeling ready for trick-or-treat season. From pumpkins to black cats, these little snuggly companions flew off the shelves. Nicky immediately knew he needed the bat and Hads carefully selected the adorable owl in a witch hat - so cute!

💛 A Special Buggy Bag Sneak Peek

We loved seeing our Buggy Bags featured in the shop, giving families a chance to peek inside before grabbing one for themselves. Designed to keep kids entertained (and parents sane!) during restaurants, travel, and everyday adventures, Buggy Bags are a perfect companion for fall outings. Whether your family is road-tripping to see the foliage or just braving a busy Saturday brunch, Buggy Bags keep little hands busy with screen-free, creative fun.

At Buggy Box Co., we’re all about building memories through small moments. Friday’s event at Tadpole was a reminder of just how much joy kids find in creating, exploring, and celebrating together. We’re so grateful to partner with wonderful local businesses that bring families together for experiences like this.
