Find the Pumpkin
If the weather allows, let kids test their sleuthing skills with this Halloween game.
Which one of these is a pumpkin? Correct answer: none.
Let kids run wild and find the real jack-o'-lanterns.
Place mini-pumpkins and imposters (navel oranges) in different hiding spots before the party. Consider high tree branches (no climbing; tell the kids they have to shake the trees), the mailbox, sandbox, underneath overturned buckets, etc. The child with the most pumpkins wins. Oranges don't count.
