Fun Halloween Party Activities

Fun Halloween Party Activities for Toddlers

There are limitless ideas to the fun you can have at a Halloween party. Over the years, Halloween has grown into a sophisticated, adult celebration. Return to the fun kids had years ago with these basic but fun Halloween party ideas for kids.

Apple bob - Fill a large tub with water and apples. Let kids take turns bobbing for apples.

Costume contest - Once all your guests arrive at the party, take a vote on the best and scariest costumes. Add as many categories to your list as you want and hand out a grand prize to the best costume.

Pin the nose on Jack O' Lantern - This is a spin-off version of the all-time favorite game among children. Make a huge Jack O' Lantern, leaving off his nose. Let kids take turns being blindfolded and pin (or tape) the nose on Jack.

Pumpkin painting contest - Hold a pumpkin painting contest. See who can paint the funniest or silliest face into a pumpkin.

Make a mask - Give younger kids at your Halloween party construction paper, round-ended safety scissors, markers and glue. Let them make their own face masks for the party. Punch a hole in both sides of the mask and tie string or tiny elastic on the mask.
