Halloween Activities

​Fright Night

​Gather all your Halloween movie favorites, popcorn, and sweets to enjoy a night in front of your big screen.

​Pumpkin Carving

​Set aside a day to go to the pumpkin patch and carve pumpkins at home. Don't forget to get a carving kit for a smoother experience.

Did you know the original Jack-o-Lanterns used turnips? This tradition of turnip carving came from Europe and was changed to pumpkins in the U.S. for being easier to carve and more plentiful.

Halloween Word Search

This free downloadable printout makes for an easy game to occupy the kiddos.

​Cookie Baking

Novelty cookie cutters add some fun to spending quality time in the kitchen.

​Tell Scary Stories

​Gather around a fire with a cozy blanket to share your favorite spooky tales.

​Gift a Boo Basket

Bring joy to your friends and neighbors by surprising them with a boo basket. Anonymously leave a basket on their doorstep filled with seasonal or Halloween treats and include these downloadable You've Been Booed tags so they can pass along the spirit of Halloween to their neighbors.

​Halloween Bingo

​Host a game night with bingo cards friendly for all ages.

Visit a Haunted House

Grab your friends and get ready for a scream fest.

​Make Monster Slime

​The kids can make unique and creepy recipes with this kit.

​This one is a more common tradition, but what kid doesn't enjoy dressing up and getting lots of candy.
