October 7th 2015 - Pass the pumpkin game
Last Halloween I came up with the idea of the pass the pumpkin game based on the traditional pass the pass the parcel. However, instead of keeping going with unwrapping to get the prize each player it landed on took a sweet from the pumpkin, once everyone had had 2 sweets (we only had small numbers playing) the next time the music stopped that person took home the pumpkin and all the rest of the sweets in it.
In the sale after halloween last year I picked up a plastic pumpkin (trick or treat bag) that we could use for this years party. Today I have sat and filled it up with sweets of various types - body parts, lollipops and sherbet straws. It is now ready to take with us to my friends house.
The kids loved playing it last year as they all got sweets. And it also made up for the fact that they didn't all go trick or treating before the party.
I have also done this as a train.
