KID FRIENDLY HALLOWEEN ACTIVITIES

Start a new Halloween tradition!

Elsie from A Beautiful Mess shares how she and her daughters create a new Halloween house for their Halloween village each year. This would be such an awesome one to do yearly! Plus you can use whatever craft supplies you already have at home. If you’re in Grande Prairie, I know I’ve picked up similar wooden bird houses at the Dollarama.

Get outside for a scavenger hunt!

Since the weather is a little iffy here around Halloween I thought we better have a Scavenger Hunt that could be done inside or outside (or both!). Again, most of these items I’ve found at the Dollar stores in Grande Prairie, outside of the broom… that one I already had!

Create a cute spider web!

Make a spider web with your littles out of yarn and popcicle sticks! You could even use these as an item in your scavenger hunt!

Make some Halloween Treats

Cullen loves hot dogs, so this was an easy choice for me! These mummy dogs are made from wrapping hot dogs in crescent roll dough, so easy!

I thought this Halloween bark was so cute, and could be an awesome way to use up some candy as well!

AND ONE JUST FOR US ADULTS

Candy Corn jello shots!

Ok, so I know not all love candy corn, but this is really more vanilla and orange flavouring so I think all would like it! Plus I mean, who doesn’t love jello shots!
