What Are Some Good Games For A Children’s Halloween Party For Ages 2 All The Way To Age 14?
08/13
I’m doing a halloween/birthday party for my daughter, who is turning 2 on October 29th. We’re going to have a variety of ages there, from age 2 to age 14. We are expecting 20-30 children, and want to keep them all entertained.
We already found a game called “ghost bowling”, where you paint coke bottles white and put little ghost faces on them and let the kids bowl. We also are going to have a “mummy beauty pageant”, where kids wrap one person from their group with toilet paper. But the party is going to be three hours long…Any ideas? Thanks!

Have a daughter that is 8. Many neices and nephews all different ages. Every time we plan a party with games and fun things to do, the kids end up going off and doing their own thing. So now we keep it simple. Just a couple games or a pinata or something. For a Halloween party though………..you have so many options!
GOOD LUCK,
All my ideas are old….maybe thats why the kids always entertain themselves!LOL!
bobbing for apples never fails. Also, searching through spaghetti with peeled green grapes (for fish eyes) for a special treat, scariest ghost story contest, best ghost howl etc… good luck
Is this an outdoor party? In my area, October 29th could be 30 to 80 degrees…(or anywhere in between) For an outdoor party, buy a couple dozen eggs and dye them orange, & paint them like jack-o-lanterns. You can hard boil them first, but it’s more fun if they are raw. Put the kids in teams of 2 pairing them up according to age. Stand them all facing each other and have them toss the egg to their partner. After each successful toss, they take 1 step back. The game goes on until there is only one egg left uncracked. When the game is over let the dog out to lick up all the yolks…LOL (This is also a fun game with water baloons in the summer)
You could make one room of your house, carport or basement into a haunted house. This could be the prise for various “winners” of games. Eventually let everyone have a turn to go through. Older kids could “help” with the haunting.
from 2 to 14..well, the lower end is just learning to talk, and the upper end is just beginning to experiment with oral-sex, so you
have quite a challenge on your hands…maybe you can use the same “ghost bowling” bottles for the little ones for spin-the-bottle
for the older ones. Or you can do pin the tail on the donkey for the little ones, and the big ones can play pin the tail on the playboy
bunnt with the same equipment, just replace the donkey with a centerfold,,,,,hope this helps….
Kids love bodily sounds…let them have a fart-a-palooza contest. You can have different categories…stinkest, longest, loudest, quietest, multi-tones…you get the pic.
Well of coure bobbing for apples, but then there’s “under the sheet” you but a bunch of food that feels like eye balls, guts, and other things to gross them out and let them all hold the things with their eyes closed. Ghost stories for the older kids, maybe hide and seek but put scary things in places the kids would most likly hide. Scavenger hunt of scary things like plastic spiders and rats, and you can always put a movie in and have them watch that( but that might be kind of tricky because of some movies content ) but theres always movies like casper and scooby doo.
One good game that you might play in the party is the “Know that Famous Scary Character” where children would depict the famous scary character in the TV and Movies”. I hope this one is helpful to you.
You guys might as well try the hide and seek game. But with a twist. Those who will be caught first will help the loose player to find the other kids.
