In this exciting game, you will set up decorated tins, fill them with a toy or treat, and let your little one use a small pumpkin to knock them down. Then your child gets to keep whatever’s inside

Spider Web Motor Activity

For this activity, put tape in the shape of a web on the ground, scatter some Halloween-themed items, and have your little one pick them up without stepping off of the web.

Erase the Pumpkin

This game is best for a warmer climate (or inside if you don’t mind a little mess). Draw a pumpkin on a chalkboard and have your child “erase” it by throwing wet sponges at it!

Poke a Pumpkin

For this final game, you will need to decorate a piece of cardboard, glue plastic cups on it in the shape of a pumpkin, and put prizes in each of the cups. Then you will cover the openings with tissue paper, securing them with rubber bands. To play, have your child poke the tissue paper, breaking it open, and let them keep whatever’s inside!
