Exciting Halloween Games! Ideas That Kids and Adults Alike Will Love (21–30)
Spider Fight

When it comes to Halloween, spider motifs that convey a creepy vibe are a must.
Here’s a collection of competitive games themed around spiders.
Players compete across several formats: for example, blowing through a straw to launch a spider forward and race for speed, or trying—while blindfolded—to stick a spider at the center of a spiderweb field.
Scores from multiple games are totaled to determine the winner.
The desire to beat the rival right in front of you is sure to make the competition even more exciting.
It’s also a good idea to add handicaps tailored to participants’ abilities, such as changing the weight of the spiders being moved.
The “Haa” game

Let me introduce “Haa tte Iu Game,” a party game popular with a wide range of ages.
Despite its simple rules, it’s a hilarious, high-energy game.
The rules are easy: you’re assigned a prompt and you express it using only your face and voice—nothing else.
Everyone except the performer tries to guess which prompt is being portrayed.
When you reveal the answer, explaining the intention behind your expression makes it even funnier.
If you play it at Halloween while everyone’s in costume, you might see a ghost sighing or someone whispering “I love you,” so just the visuals alone can have everyone cracking up!

Using simple supplies, create a game kids will love.
You’ll need toilet paper rolls, origami paper, scissors, double-sided tape or glue, pipe cleaners, round stickers, paper plates, a permanent marker, masking tape, and more.

Let’s toss ping-pong balls into the ghost’s mouth! Here’s an idea for a Candy Shoot Challenge.
How about making the Candy Shoot Challenge the main event at your Halloween party where everyone gathers? Attach handmade illustrations or photos to a cardboard box, cut a hole, and aim to shoot ping-pong balls into the mouth.
You’ll need cardboard, large illustrations or photos, a utility knife, wooden skewers or chopsticks, rubber bands, ping-pong balls, clothespins, and tape.
It’s a game that kids are sure to get excited about.
Wobbling Pumpkin Tower
Stack Jack-o’-lanterns without letting them topple! Here are ideas for a wobbly pumpkin tower.
Make Jack-o’-lanterns bigger than the kids’ faces and play a full-body game! You’ll need orange and black plastic bags, newspaper, yellow vinyl tape, more newspaper, and bubble wrap.
The key is not to overstuff the colored bags with newspaper—leave some room so they flatten slightly.
Give it a try!
Wobbly Pumpkin Plastic Bottle Knockdown
@e6u42 This is a game called “Wobbly Pumpkin Bottle Knockdown 🎃.” Line up plastic bottles in a single row on the floor. Participants sit on chairs facing each other at the two ends and hold a newspaper stick with a wobbly pumpkin attached. They swing the wobbly pumpkin to hit and knock down the plastic bottles. The team that knocks down all the bottles first wins. Purpose and effects: - Maintain and improve upper-limb range of motion - Maintain and improve concentration When the pumpkin hit the bottle just right, it made a satisfying pop sound, and everyone got really excited.#Asahikawa#Asahikawatranslation#WelfareCaregiverCaregivingElderlyNurse#CareManagerCare ManagerHome-visit nursingHelper RecruitmentCaregiver recruitmentTarget practice#ElderlyRecreationRecreation for the elderlyHalloween #pumpkin#sensoryplay#activities#kindergartan#preschoolactivities#elderycare#older#nursinghome#movement#activating#happykid#etkinlik#kidsactivies#homeschool#preschoolactivities

Surprisingly tricky! Here’s an idea for a wobbling jack-o’-lantern plastic bottle knockdown game.
When it comes to Halloween, the pumpkin-themed jack-o’-lantern is a must.
This time, try attaching a weighted jack-o’-lantern to the tip of a fishing rod and challenge yourself to a game where you knock over water-filled plastic bottles.
The wobbling jack-o’-lantern might not hit the bottles where you aim, which can be frustrating.
But don’t give up—keep trying!
Candy Carrying Game
@tomoni288Halloween · cute horror song (191109) – PeriTune
Fun for kids as young as 2! Here are ideas for a candy-carrying game.
When you think of Halloween, many of us picture sweets, right? This time, let’s make big candies out of origami paper or colored plastic bags and play with them.
Use masking tape to draw a line on the floor and have the children walk along it while balancing the big candy on a ladle or a spatula.
The key is to move carefully so you don’t drop it! If elementary school children or older are participating, it’s a good idea to create a more challenging course.
