Earlier today a friend of Benny’s asked him for some ideas for a fun kids’ Halloween party. Now, you may recall that some time ago I consulted a card file of activities for just such an event. Unfortunately, back then I couldn’t find the master table of contents for the activity instructions and was left somewhat confused about what this one game Peanut Lag was supposed to be, so I wound up giving up on the whole party idea.
Well, at some point later today I finally found the table of contents for the card file, and there are a whole bunch of games here that sound pretty good that weren’t even listed on the plan for Halloween.
By the time I found the table of contents, however, Benny had already come up with his own ideas for activities/refreshments for a fun kids’ Halloween party. This is kind of a PG-rated blog so I might have to edit some of these descriptions from the original, but hopefully you’ll get the idea:
- Tie a turkey neck to the oldest boy’s bathing suit area. Call him Carl and have him serve drinks to the ladies
- Cover the hallway floor in ground beef. Cover that with clear plastic and dish soap. Slip-n-Slide!
- DO NOT HAVE ANY CLOWNS. Enough people already think they need to pretend to be afraid of clowns. Hire a terrifying pony instead
- Get a bounce house. Write “ORGY DOME” on the side in “fake blood”. (Fake blood is any real blood that isn’t “technically” human)
- Fear Pong
- Closet Goose
- Difficult Cheese. Difficult Cheese is just new labels on cans of orange spray paint. They go next to the “crackers”
- Lunch Creep
- Pin The Tail On Heather’s Hot Mom
- Chicken Bone Challenge
- Barebottom Hayride
- Facepainting
Benny’s friend wrote back “thanks” but we haven’t heard anything further. Maybe we need to have our own party.
