The favorite game at every party we host for All Hallows’ Eve/All Saints’ Day is always the All Saints Guessing Jars. The past few years, with going back to hosting a smaller party at home, I have tried to have enough jars (some with new saints and some with repeats from past years) so that every “saint” in attendance can win one. I always think there will be no way to link more treats to saints, but yet I keep managing to come up with new ones each year! We had 12 new additions to the ever growing collection last year and I’m working on another 12 right now for this year.

We also included a bunch of jars from past years as well! Using Dots Pretzels instead of regular pretzel sticks for St. Bernadette was another new addition/variation.
If I can finish this year’s jars today, I will try and share them too, otherwise it might end up being next year! 😉
