One of the simplest Halloween games for these young kids is called Guess the Ghost. All you need to get this bit of kid fun going is to grab a large sheet and divide the kids into two groups. The first group goes off somewhere where the first group can’t see or hear them. You choose one of that first group to be the ghost and then put the sheet over her or him.
She or he then heads off in ghostly garb to the location of the second group. Members of the second group have to then ask questions of the ghost to try to determine who is under that sheet.
If you’re looking for Halloween games for kids six and under try Make a Monster. What you’ll need to supply them are scissors (safe ones, used with the supervision of adults at all times), construction paper, crayons or magic markers and glue. Divide the kids up into teams of two to start their Halloween games by designing their very own monster. The really great thing about this game is that, except for the few parents that supervise, the others can prepare the party munchies or organize the presents, etc. while the kids are creatively occupied.
You can also do a Halloween version of one of the most popular games for kids – Pin the Tail on the Donkey. You can call this Pin the Tail on the Witch, the Warlock, The Ghost, or even the Pumpkin. What you’ll need in the way of supplies for this Halloween game for kids are a sheet of foam board, acrylic paints, a wide marker, construction paper, safe scissors, tape, a blindfold scarf, and white stickers. You also want to pick out some inexpensive but fun prizes for this game. Kids in this age group like plastic animals, cheap earrings or bracelets, miniature cars, and noise makers.
