Autumn Celebration: Games

Fall is a great time to get everyone together, take a break from school on the weekends, have a party and play some fun, carefree games. The games are perfect for any fall party and some can be altered to accommodate any themed celebration!

Games

Bob for apples.

Have a Pumpkin Roll Contest. Divide the kids into two teams and provide a pumpkin to each team. Have the kids roll it to one end and back and pass it along to the next person.

Throw a Hula Hoop around a large pumpkin. (For Halloween, try throwing the Hula Hoop around a scarecrow or a creepy fall mascot!)

If you have bales of hay, have the kids jump over the bales of hay as an obstacle relay race.

String up donuts and tie the kids arms behind their backs. Have them eat the donuts off of the line without using their hands. (Use donuts frosted in the colors of your party. For Halloween orange and black are a must. Orange, red and Yellow work great for a general fall theme)

Hold a scavenger hunt outdoors. If at night, hand out glow sticks for the kids to search for the loot. (change the clues depending on the theme of the event)

Fill a large cardboard box with leaves and place toys in the leaves. Have the kids put their hands inside the box and pick out a toy.

Play Hot Pumpkin, like Hot Potato. (You can also use an apple if you are having an apple-themed party)
