Objectives

A fun game to play for the whole family at Halloween night.

Materials

  • List of 30 Halloween words

  • Plastic Jack-o-lantern, witch hat or other Halloween container

  • Lotto sheet for each player

  • Pumpkin seeds or candy corn

Directions:

Print out Halloween Lotto Sheets (one for each player). Print and cut Halloween words slips. Fold each word slip and place in the plastic Jack-o-lantern. Give each player a lotto sheet and a handful of pumpkin seeds or candy corns. Dim the light and put out some tea light candles to set a spooky mood. Call out the words one at a time from the slips of paper. If the word called out and the picture of the word is on a player's lotto sheet, the player covers it with a pumpkin seed or candy corn. The first player to cover all pictures in a row (up or down) and calls out "Happy Halloween !" is the winner and gets to pull out words the next time around.
