We’ve collected over 65 Halloween kids activities that are filled with awesome ideas for kids.
I don’t know about you, but this time of year always seems to sneak up on me.
I start to see Halloween decorations at a few homes. Then, I see decorations at Michael’s (my favorite place on Earth). And, suddenly, I’m scrambling to find candy to put out on my porch because Halloween is HERE!
It can’t just be me, right?
I feel like time speeds up around October and gets even faster as we move towards Christmas.
Even though it can be a really busy time for us Mommas, this is a really fun time for our kids.
When I’m feeling busy and stretched a little thin, I try to remember what it was like for me as a kid. Personally, I loved everything about Halloween. From fun festivals and games to dreaming up crazy Halloween costumes, I absolutely adored Halloween as a kid.
So, if you’re like me and your feeling like Halloween has crept up on you, I’ve got you covered.
This list has activities that you can do with your kids RIGHT NOW without adding more stress to your life.
These moments will end up being big memories for our kids as they grow. Remember, it doesn’t have to be complicated or perfect for your kids to have fun!
I’ve split this list up for you into two categories: activities and art.
Let’s start our giant list of super fun Halloween kids activities with activities and games. The second half of the list is dedicated to arts and crafts.
Have fun!
