Halloween Food Game
Try this simple Halloween activity. It’s fun and quick for a kids’ party or for in the classroom. Just place a food or kitchen item in a solid cardboard box (or any type of box that is not see-through). Label the box with what gross Halloween item is inside. Have the kids reach their hands in without looking to feel the icky item inside. You can blindfold the kids, keep the hole in the box only big enough for a hand to fit through, or hold the box high over their heads so they can’t peek inside. Variations on this game include leaving the labels off and asking the kids what it feels like. But this might have kids shouting out what it really is (spaghetti) instead of what you want it to feel like (veins).
