Children Halloween Party Games

By Karen Riedl


There's been a lot written about kids Halloween party games. Kids between the ages of four to ten can be a few especially when they're excited. Therefore you want to capture their energy and everybody will have more fun

Pumpkin Bowling - this is a game where you fill ten good looking bottles with stones or gravel, you can draw daft faces on them and then utilize a tiny pumpkin as the bowling ball. The kid who knocks the most over wins.

Musical Headstones - use sturdy cardboard boxes for this one, or nice plastic boxes. You can decorate them with spray paint or cover them with sheets - start with seven chairs - 8 youngsters, fancy Halloween music and march em round the chairs and when the music stops they all sit on a gravestone. The person that misses finding one is out - repeat removing a chair each time.

Spirit Hunt - or pumpkin hunt - This is rather like the Easter egg hunt except use pumpkins or spirits with treats. It'll get the kids up and moving.

Mummy Wrap - draw straws to see who will get to be the mummy or mummies. Then have a grouping of children wrap em in a toilet roll - untidy but what fun. Divide the children into sections. The initial team done with the best wrapped mummy wins.

Cupcake Decorating Contest. - supply the room, the cupcakes, the supplies to embellish em with and let the imaginations run rampant. Then the adults get to figure out who wins.

Pass the Pumpkin - pumpkins come in all varieties of size - or employ a small gourd, ties the hands behind the back, divide the group into teams and start passing the pumpkin down each line from under the first child' s jaw. This ought to be exciting.
