Planning a NYC Halloween party for kids?
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, you’re certainly not alone! Coordinating all the logistics can be a real pain in the neck!
Check out these sure-fire ways to brew up ‘spook-tacular’ fun. Your children will thank you for “the best Halloween ever!”
Haunted Forts: If you were like me as a kid, then you loved making forts! Have the kids create their own Halloween fort/haunted house.
Here are some ideas for supplies: cushions, cardboard boxes, tape, flash lights, sheets, string, bubble wrap. Ask them to give you a tour when they’re finished!
Mysterious Shadow Fun: Equip the kids with flashlights and see who can come up with spooky Halloween shadows: pumpkins, bats, and monsters, oh my!
Rib-Tickling Knee Slappers: Give each child a Halloween joke or two. Then take turns hamming it up! Click here for a free printable pdf with Halloween jokes for kids.
Mummy Relay: This Halloween activity is suited for groups of 4 or more. Provide each group with 1-2 rolls of toilet paper.
Each group chooses 1 person to be ‘the mummy.’ The first group to completely wrap your mummy (leaving holes for eyes, noise and mouth, of course) wins.
Halloween Freeze Dance: During this activity, the kids move or dance like a monster whenever the music is playing – and stop when the music stops.
Play some kid-friendly versions of Thriller, The Monster Mash and Time Warp to ensure your little goblins have fun, fun, fun!
Spooky Story Circle: Have the kids sit in a circle and work together to create 1 Halloween-themed story. Once they have a story, assign parts and have them act it out.
Build Your Own Monster: Think ‘make a scarecrow’ but modified for the indoors. Give them some old clothes and newspaper and see what kind of monster they create!
Of course, if you’re looking for just the right brew of magic and mystery, then there’s only one thing left to do…
…arrange my Halloween magic show, of course! ;-)
You’ll experience magic that amazes, tickles the funny bone and keeps young “boos and ghouls” entranced.
