|  | | Halloween: Thursday October 31st |
| | Everything you need to make your Halloween party go down a scream |
| | | | Duck Apple | | You will need: | | A washing up bowl filled with water and as many apples as you can fit in!! | | What you do: | Probably the most famous of all Halloween games. The aim is to get your jaws around the apple and pick it out of a the bowl of water.
Be warned you will get very wet! To make it even harder and look more foolish you can try it blindfolded. Be warned, you will get wet! |
| Bob Apple | | You will need: | | Apples with stalks, string | | What you do: | | Hang an apple on a string from your ceiling or a tree and try grab the apple with your mouth with your hands behind your back. Probably the most difficult of all Halloween games. |
| Mummy Wrap | | You will need: | | Lots of toilet paper | | What you do: | | Take your party and divide them into partners. You will need a lot of toilet paper. One person will be the mummy, and the other will be the wrapper. The object of the game is for the wrapper to cover toilet paper around his or her mummy, including their arms which are held out. The winner is the first person to be wrapped like a mummy in toilet paper. |
| Scary storytelling | | You will need: | | A group of people and a vivid imagination! | | What you do: | | Chinese whispers can be adapted for Halloween by starting off a scary message and see how the story develops whilst it is whispered around the circle of people. |
| Eyeball Relay | | You will need: | | Ping pong balls, spoons | | What you do: | | Think egg and spoon race with a difference!! Balance the ping pong ball, disguised as an eyeball, on the spoon and take turns to run from one end of the room to another. The winner is the team who gets all its players back the quickest to the start line. |
Pin the nose of the pumpkin | | You will need: | | pumpkin or poster of a pumpkin | | What you do: | | A copy of ‘Put the Tail on the Donkey,' though just as much fun. You blindfold one of your gullible friends, spin them around and send them on a wayward journey to try and pin the nose on the pumpkin. You could also try drawing a picture of a whitch or ghost for a variation on this game. |
Pumpkin bowling | | You will need: | | oranges, plastic bottles of water | | What you do: | | Draw pumpkin faces onto the oranges and substitute your living room for the local bowling alley. Use the bottles of water in them as pins and replace the ball with the oranges and try to get a strike! |
Halloween Pictionary | | You will need: | | lots of paper and felt tip pens | | What you do: | | The familiar game of pictionary can be easily adapted for this scary night. You need to fill a pumpkin with slips of paper with Halloween themes on them, for instance, Mummy, Witch, or Vampires. You play with two teams. One player from each team takes turns to draw a picture in a time limit set by yourselves, for example, two minutes. A point is earned everytime your team guesses a word. The team with the most points after each player has had a turn, wins the game. |
