Are you looking to throw your kids a cool halloween party this year? Look no further! Halloween parties are perfect for kids and can be so much fun. This guide will help you to make your kid’s party a raving success:

 

Come Up With Costumes In Advance

 

Come up with the costumes as far in advance as you can. The costumes are one of the main things that make the party, so really put some effort into your kid’s costumes. Make sure they get a say in what they want to be. You can either buy them ready made, or make them yourselves. Making your costumes allows you to get really creative and make something seriously spooky. Make sure you give plenty of notice for everybody else to sort out their costumes too.

 

Give Out Cool Invites

 

The invites are the first thing that set the tone for the party. Make sure they convey the style of the party, and you include all of the important information. There are lots of halloween invitation ideas out there. Again, buy ready made or make them yourself. You’ll save yourself lots of hassle and time if you find a good place to purchase them from.

 

Use Decor To Set The Theme And Tone

 

Your decor is going to set the theme and tone for the night. Make sure you take your time with it. Get as creative and detailed as you can. It’s going to make a huge difference! You could even hide spooky surprises in cupboards and behind doors. Just make sure it’s age appropriate for the kids who will be attending.

 

 

 

Create Spooky Snacks

 

Make sure your snacks are spooky too. You still want everything to look edible, but you can get creative. Make bloody hotdog ‘fingers’. You can even just decorate some cakes and cookies with spiders and other ghoulish things.

 

Make A Playlist

 

Make a halloween playlist. There are lots of spooky songs out there that you can include. However, feel free to put some regular songs on there too.

 

Come Up With Games

 

Kid’s parties are all about the games. There are lots of halloween games you can play. Why not have a best costume competition too? This will ensure everybody puts effort into what they are wearing. You can play regular games, such as pass the parcel or musical statues. However, there are halloween style games you can play too. Instead of pin the tail on the donkey, how about pin the wart on the witch? You can also bob for apples, and make up your own games. Bear in mind that kids of certain ages will also want to do their own thing. Don’t include too many games.
Make sure you have a clear outline for your party too. You should have a schedule, so that everybody knows when the fun starts and finishes. It isn’t fair on parents otherwise, and some kids might not turn up because of it. Use these tips and it’ll be one to remember!
