2012 Halloween Party Game Fun

Bobbin' for apples was fun in it's time, but it's now time to bring some new life to the party, your Halloween party. No game, however, can ever replace the sacred scavenger hunt. Remember those? My Mom used to have scavenger hunts in the house, which was a blast. She started those because it was pouring rain one Halloween night and there was no way she was trecking us four little kids out in that!

Here's a few other Halloween party game ideas:

For the kids:

Halloween word game---have the children write down the word Halloween. In a specific time frame, see who can make the most words out of Halloween. (short time of five minutes is best) You can also play this with "Trick or Treat".

Eyeball Run---pre paint a few ping pong balls (or small styrofoam balls) as eyeballs. Create two teams, each player will carry their eyeball on a spoon up and down the course and bring the spoon/ball to the next player. First team to finish wins.

Easy Guess......Fill jars with candy; allow the kids to put their guess down as to how much candy is in the jar.

Halloween Bingo---Play bingo with halloween candy (rolos, m&m's, sweetarts,etc) rather than the usual bingo pieces.

Not so scary scavenger hunt....write down a series of clues that will lead the kids place to place in the house to a final halloween treasure. For fun, use 'ghost cut out paper or pumpkin cut outs'

Other fun game ideas will be listed below for children, teens and adults....here's just a few to get you started:
