Halloween Fun & Ideas For Moms
Looking
for Halloween themed activities and games? We've
got you covered!
We've put together some great Halloween activities that your kids
can do as a family or in a group. These activities are also great
for Halloween parties or school. We also have a
Halloween baby costume contest and a
page filled with
Halloween Contests & Sweepstakes.
The month of October brings class parties, kids
parties, Boy and Girl Scout get-togethers, community gatherings,
hayrides, Fall Festivals and Halloween celebrations. Where kids
gather to celebrate Halloween, parents and leaders frantically
search for unique, fun and creative activities that can be done in a
group setting.
Check Out
These Halloween Group Activities & Games
Pin The Face On The Great Pumpkin Cut a
large pumpkin shape from orange poster board. Cut three triangle
shapes from black construction paper as well as a jack-o-lantern
type mouth from the black construction paper. Place on piece of
double sided tape on each triangle and mouth shape.Blindfold the
child, spin them around three times and allow them to place the
facial features on the great pumpkin.
An alternative to this for younger kids is to simply cut a stem
shape from green construction paper and allow the children to Pin
The Stem On The Great Pumpkin. For this game, tape the facial
features to the pumpkin before the game begins.
Guess The Ghost This is a great activity
for a classroom party where there are many activities happening at
the same time. Using one white sheet, a parent or teacher randomly
(and discreetly) selects one student and takes them to the hallway
to put the sheet over him or her. The parent brings the student
back into the room and the remaining children must guess who the
ghost is. To really stump the children, occasionally place the
sheet over the principal, school nurse, librarian or other fun
loving individual.
Bobbing For Apples A clean alternative to
the real thing! Cut a large apple shape from red construction
paper. Place it on the floor. Place a paperclip on a number of
stickers, no homework coupons or other lightweight objects.
Scatter the paper clipped items all around the apple. Tie a string
to a stick and at the end of the string tie a small magnet. The
object of the game is to bob for apples, or touch the magnet to a
paperclip. Whatever the child picks up with the magnet is theirs to
keep.
Halloween Treat Ring Toss - Again, cut a
large pumpkin shape from orange poster board. Place it on the
ground and scatter candies and small items (i.e. eight pack of
crayons, play-doh, fruit snacks, etc.) all around the pumpkin. Using
diving rings or another type of ring (even doughnuts if you really
want to be silly), the child tosses the rings and gets to keep the
items that are inside of the ring.
