Spooky Treats Around Milwaukee

It’s officially fall in Milwaukee, Brookfield, and New Berlin – one of the Krause team’s favorite times of the year. In addition to the natural beauty of the fall colors around us and the crisp air and chilly nights, one of the holidays we love best is right around the corner…Halloween is upon us! The Milwaukee County area serves up some of the best spooky treats and event to help get you and your family in the holiday spirit.

Start your season with a visit to a local pumpkin patch. Pack up the kids and a lunch box and enjoy the petting zoos, tractor rides, and corn mazes while you select the perfect pumpkin to perch on your porch. One great option is Swan’s Pumpkin Farm in Franksville, or Jim’s Pumpkin Farm in Germantown for the perfect family photo opportunity – and a few tasty local treats!

For even more family-friendly spooky fun, look no further than one of the most beloved family fun centers in the area: Betty Brinn Children’s Museum.

Free for members and included in admission for non-members, you’ll enjoy activities all over the museum – don’t forget your costumes!

Join the 8th Annual Dia de los Muertos celebration at Walker Square Park on October 28. A variety of free activities are planned to celebrate and honor the lives of your loved one who have died.
