Craft paper or cone-shaped witch hats and have students toss rings over them. It’s a fun way to develop coordination and hand-eye skills.

Create bingo cards with Halloween images like ghosts, pumpkins, bats, and witches. Call out clues, and students mark their cards for a fun, festive game.

Play Halloween-themed music and let students dance. When the music stops, everyone must freeze like a monster. This game is great for energy breaks.

5. Spooky Word Hunt 🕸️📚

Hide Halloween-themed words around the classroom. Students search for words and practice spelling or vocabulary as they go.
