I'm not quite sure where the You've
Been Booed phenomenon came from but when it comes out it catches on and it’s
so much fun for kids and adults alike.
We were Boo’ed for the first time when we moved to our new
neighborhood, I came home from work one day to find a small goodie bag and a
note tied to my door knob. When I read the “You've Been Boo-ed” poem and
directions it put a smile on my face and made me feel welcomed. Though it’s
intended to be a kid’s activity I ran with it at home and at work, our son was
only 1 at the time. We passed the Boo onto two of our neighbors but then I
drove a few minutes away to two of my friend’s houses and Boo’ed them too J. The next
morning I made another copy and left it on a coworker’s desk along with a candy
treat. The office got a kick out of it for the day, not sure if my friends ever
passed it on though.
What you’ll need:
Candy or some other item that will make a person smile
A printer or copy machine
Stealth moves
Print out two or three of the You've Been Boo’ed Direction sheets/poem
And two or three of the I've Been Boo’ed sheets
Create a little goodie bag and then pick 2-3 houses to Boo. Go to each
house and place the goodie bag and poem in your neighbors mailbox or right on
their front door.
If you know that one of you “victims” will need a little help to pass
the Boo along quickly, give them a hand and print out a few extra copies for
them.
This can also work in an office setting if you work in an environment
where it’s okay to have a little fun.
