Halloween Party Ideas For Kids

Nothing makes Halloween more fun than throwing a Halloween party for your children and their friends.

When my kids were young they loved the following cool and creepy Halloween game and Halloween activity ideas:

First let’s start with one of my favorite Halloween party ideas - a pumpkin invitation.

Pumpkin invites is one of the most creative ways I’ve found to invite guests to a Halloween party. Purchase a miniature pumpkin for each child. You can usually find ones that stand about 3” tall and resemble a gourd. With an indelible marker write all the party details on one side. On the other side, draw or paint a face or leave it as an activity for the guest to do. (Be sure to pick up a few extra pumpkins for a special ring toss game – three to five should do it.)

Another neat Halloween party idea is to use orange balloons as the basis of your child’s party invitations. Blow up each balloon, write the information on one side and draw a spooky face on the other. Let it dry a moment, deflate and send to guests.

Tag isn't Just for Kids!

Kids have the most incredible way of entertaining themselves. Even in this day and age when there are so many options for entertainment. What I love is - to see what happens when a child finds him or herself in a situation where there are no toys, no TV, no video games.

Not too long ago, my family and another family went on a picnic. It was a beautiful day, not too hot, perfect weather. The kids were excited to see each other and the adults were happy to get away from everyday distractions... until...

We realized nobody had remembered to bring any sports equipment like frisbees, baseballs, soccer balls, etc...

OH NO! was the first thought by the adults. How are we going to entertain these kids? I know we all forgot what it was like when we were children. Leave it up to them. One of the kids yelled that age-old phrase, "You're IT!!!)

So we played Tag. All of us. Kids and adults.
