As soon as October 1st hits, children can’t wait for the Halloween activities to begin, especially Halloween class parties.
Here are a few games that will get even the littlest goblin in the mood!
The Brain Game
The object of the game is to pick through a “rubber brain” to figure out what is inside. It’s easy to create this game at home. Start with some Jell-O and fill it with gummy candies such as worms, bears, small candies or little trinkets. When the children stick their hands into the Brain (bowl full of Jell-O) they have to guess what is inside. It is goopy and messy and exactly what kids want on Halloween!
The Spaghetti Game
It’s a good idea to have some smocks or aprons handy since this one can be messy. Make a large bowl of spaghetti and fill it with items such as small plastic bugs, gummy worms, and other small strange feeling toys. Like the Brain Game, the kids feel around in the bowl of spaghetti to try to identify the items inside. After each gets a chance to feel around, each child will make a list of all the items they felt in the bowl and whoever has the most right wins.
Less Messy Than The Spaghetti Game
Same premise as the spaghetti game but a lot less messy. Paint a cardboard box black on the inside as well as the outside. Cut a small hole in the top. The hole should be large enough for the kids to get their hand into. Fill the box with all sorts of items such as small pumpkin, plastic snake, plastic spiders, and other great items. Have the children guess what is in the box and who ever gets the most right gets the box and all the items inside.
Halloween Word Search and Coloring Pages
Word searches are always popular for holidays and they are a great way to get the children to settle down after an active game or activity. The word “Halloween” is perfect to see how many words the kids can create out of that one word.
