Halloween Party Games for Children
If you help in the classroom or plan a party at home having a good selection of Not-So-Scary Movies for the kids to watch during downtime is just as important as the party food that is served. Since the kids will be getting a lot of sweets when they trick or treat on Halloween night you will want to have a variety of Healthy Halloween Snacks to compliment the delicious assortment of Spook-tacular Halloween Desserts on the food table. And, of course, is a party really a party without games?! I have comprised a list of nontraditional and traditional Halloween Party Games to make your children giggle and squeal with glee.

Prepare ahead of time by setting each Halloween party game into separate stations. If you have multiple adults or older children attending the party and they agree to help have each of them watch over a Halloween game station to make sure that everyone is playing fair and to ensure that every child gets a chance to play. If not, at least everything will be nice and organized so that you can make your way through each gaming station with ease.
Party planning tip: Create some fun Halloween treat cups or set up a crafting station and let the kids make one for themselves, this way they have somewhere festive to keep the tricks and treats they “win” from each game.

That tin can bowling is perfect. They also love to play matching games, but I have never thought to match it up to a season or holiday.
