5 Fun Activities to Celebrate Halloween at Home  

Build Haunted Gingerbread Houses  

Why limit gingerbread houses to just the winter holidays? Get spooky by building haunted gingerbread houses with your family. To create a ghoulish masterpiece, use black and orange icing, candy corn, chocolate bats, and mini marshmallow ghosts. Your whole family can join in to decorate their own haunted house, making it a fun and tasty Halloween craft.  

Pin the Spider on the Web  

A Halloween twist on the classic “Pin the Tail on the Donkey,” this game is perfect for kids and adults alike. Create a giant web out of yarn, or draw one on paper and make tiny spiders out of paper or felt. Blindfold participants and see who can “pin” their spider closest to the center of the web. It’s simple, easy to set up, and guarantees many laughs.  

Pumpkin Painting  

Carving pumpkins can be fun, but try pumpkin painting instead if you want a less messy alternative. Grab some mini pumpkins, paint, and brushes, and let your creativity flow. You can paint spooky faces, Halloween-themed designs, or even glitter-covered pumpkins. This activity allows everyone to get involved, regardless of age.

Host a Craft Night  

Bring the family together for a Halloween-themed craft night. You can make spooky decorations, DIY costumes, or homemade Halloween cards. Stock up on supplies like construction paper, glue, markers, and glitter, and let the crafting begin.  

Play Games Like Halloween Charades or Swap Scary Stories

No Halloween night is complete without some fun and games. Play Halloween charades by acting out spooky characters or scenes for your family to guess. For a more chilling activity, gather around and take turns sharing scary stories!
