National Skyscraper Day is September 3rd, the birthday of Louis Henry Sullivan, the “father of skyscrapers.” To celebrate, we decided to explore all there is to know about skyscrapers, including building one of our own! This activity turns out to be more than just a creative building exercise. It involves teamwork, problem-solving, and some math […]
Halloween is my favorite time of year. I just can't get enough of the decorations and the games. We have a party every year! Here are some great games we've learned or made up over the years for you next Halloween Party. Mummy Wrap Split group into teams. Give each team a cheap four pack of toilet paper rolls. The teams have 5-10 minutes to wrap up a team mate like a mummy. No tape is allowed. You can either see who gets done first, who's mummy is the neatest, or the most fashionable. Bride of Frankenstein Similar to the Mummy Wrap, but have each team make a bridal dress out of the toilet paper. Have judges vote on the best dress. Stuck in the Web Hang cottony spider web in door corner and try to throw plastic spiders in it. The person who gets the most to stick wins. Sticky Eyes and a Skeleton Buy a life size skeleton cut out and some sticky eyeballs. Similar to pin the tail on the donkey. Throw the sticky eyeballs at the skeleton trying to get hem in the skeletons eye sockets. Blindfold optional. For added fun, we used a skeleton salad tong to throw the sticky eyeball. Sticky Situation Gently toss a eyeball ping pong ball towards your team mate who is holding a lint roller. The team mate must try to catch as many eyeball ping pong balls with the lint roller as possible. Use the same number as eyeballs for each team and a fresh piece of tape on the lint roller. Bones (like spoons card game similar to musical chairs) My kids favorite card game is spoons, so click here for our Halloween version. Piranha Fishing Set up a wall taller then the kids and let the kids fish over it for piranha's. We printed off piranhas and glued a prize or wrapped candy to them. When the kids fishing line came over the wall, a hidden person attaches a prize hooked with a cutout piranha, and pull on the fishing line to let the kids know they caught something. Yarn Spider Web Scary Story You'll need one skein of yarn rolled into a ball. Have your class sit in a circle. Start out a scary story. Hold the end of the yarn and toss the ball across the circle to another player. This player must add a little to the story. Keep hold of the yarn. Then, throw the ball of yarn to another player who has not yet had a turn. This continues until everyone has had a turn and the story is complete. You might want to make rules for the story to keep it age appropriate. At the end of the story you should have made a spider web out of the yarn. Wrangle a Witch Ring Toss using witch hats or black party hats. Pirate Hook In teams of two. One teammate puts on a pirate hook. The other teammate tosses a ring from a set distance. If they miss , they are out. If they make it, then, each team mate takes a step back and tries again. The team that gets the furthest wins. Get in My Tummy You will need a ghost shaped Halloween pail, candy and eyeball ping pong balls. Each player bounces the eyeball ping pong ball towards the ghost shaped Halloween pail full of candy. If it lands in the ghost pail the player gets to pick piece of candy. Candy Corn Crop Circles Try to stand up as many candy corns around a circle paper plate as possible in one minute. Bite ends off to get a flat slightly sticky surface. You might want give it a little lick, for added stickiness. The player who gets the most wins. Minute To Win It Eyeball Ping Pong Balls Glue or duct tape an old tissue box to an old belt. Fill the tissue box with 24 ping pong eyeballs. Place the belt on the player with the tissue box on the player's back. The player has one minute to try and hop around to get all the eyeball ping pong balls out of the box before the minute is up. Save Bugs From the Slime Make or buy slime. In a witches cauldron add plastic bugs and slime. The kids must save the bugs from a slime death, by picking them out of the slime with their bare hands. Don't Eat Pete You have nine squares. Place a piece of candy in each square. One player leaves the room. The other players or room Mom pick a square to be Pete. The player returns. The player begins to eat the candy until they try to eat Pete, Everyone yells "Don't Eat Pete!" The player must stop eating the candy at that point. There are tons of versions out there, here are a few I've used. Don't Eat Pete Free Printable Don't Eat The Creep www.theteacherwife.com Musical Pumpkins Just like musical chairs, but you use Pumpkins. You could even tape cutout pumpkins to the chairs or use place mats to stand on. In a circle place a pumpkin for each player. Remove one pumpkin. Start music. The players must walk around the circle until the music stops. When the music stops each player must stop on the closest pumpkin. The player that didn't get a pumpkin is out. Remove another pumpkin and play continues. Repeat until one player is left and declared the winner. Bingo I like to use tiny spiders as markers instead of candy, since the kids get so much at this time of year. Cards I like: Preschool Halloween Harry Potter Vintage Scavenger Hunt Bingo www.blackdog.net Hot and Cold Pumpkin HOT or COLD: Have on player leave the room. Hide the mini pumpkin. Have the player that left the room return. That player must now try and find the mini pumpkin. The rest of the group must say warm, warmer, hot, hot hot, on fire when the player walks close or cold, colder, freezing when the player walks further away from the mini pumpkin. Witches Brew Make a spell book of items in a spell. In a witches cauldron place items and a bag of dry beans or rice. Each team must search for the items on the spell book in order. One item per person and pass the cauldron to the next team mate. Then, start over until spell is complete. The team that finishes first wins. (You can always do a mix of Witches Brew and Witched Brew #2) Witches Brew #2 Make a spell book of die cut paper items in a spell. On a black plate called "witches cauldron" die cut paper items. Each team must search for the items on the spell book in order. Using a straw suck up one die cut paper item per person and move it to the cauldron and pass the cauldron to the next team mate. Then, start over until spell is complete. The team that finishes first wins. No hands allowed. Hot Head Similar to Hot Potato. Stand in a circle and PRETEND the shrunken head is hot. optional: You could pull it out of a witches cauldron for fun. You must pass the shrunken head or keep bouncing it in the air, because it is too hot to hold. The first person to drop it or hold it longer than 1 second is out. Play continues until one player is left and declared the winner. Freeze Dance Kids always love to freeze dance. When the music is playing the kids dance. When the music stops the kids must stop, if they don't they're out. Play continues until there is one winner. Our favorite Halloween freeze dance songs are Thriller by Michael Jackson, Monster Mash by Bobby Pickett, Walk Like an Egyptian by The Bangles , Love Potion #9 by The Searchers, Purple People Eater by Sheb Wooley. Sticky Web All you need is a hula hoop spider web made from masking tape to catch flying cotton balls. Hang sticky side out. My Preschool class loved this game! Spider Fight Have a silly string fight pretending to be a spider and the silly string is your web. Shaving cream fight is also fun. Pumpkin Chuckin' Carnival Game. Make a triangle tower out of toilet paper. Toss mini fake pumpkins at it to try and knock it over. Nerds and Squeezers You can play this game two ways. Compete using tweezers move your color of nerds from one cup to another in a minute. Or, you can play individually dumping both colors into a bowl and separating them into separate bowls using tweezers. You could also use plastic ants, popcorn kernels, or pumpkin seeds. Ghost You Take My Breath Away Suck a M&M, Skittle, Reese's Pieces, candy corn with a straw and transfer it to another coffee filter ghost within one minute. Grave Digger Place a bowl full of Candy Corn on one side of the room. Divide the group into two groups. Using only the spoon, race to transfer one piece of candy from the full bowl to the empty bowl. Take Out Candy Corns Using chopsticks move candy corn or popcorn from take out containers (or a plate). Relay Put half the team on opposite sides of the room. Place a candy pumpkin, chocolate eyeball, ping pong eyeball, candy corn, etc. in the spoon. Each member must walk across the room one at a time and transfer it to the other player. The team wins who gets the last person across the room successfully. The hard part is if they drop it, they must start over. Bugs In Jars Place a jar on the floor. See how many plastic bugs or ants you can drop and make it in the jar. My mom used to play this with us using beans as a kid. You could also use M&M's, Skittles, Pumpkin Seeds, Candy Corn or mini erasers. Corn Toss Toss a candy corn and have a teammate catch them in a cup with one minute. Corn Toss 2 Toss a candy corn or popcorn across the room into a bowl, see how many you can get within one minute. Vampire, May I? The Vampire stands at one end of the room. The kids line up on the opposite side of the room. The kids in order must ask "Vampire, may I_______?" The Vampire either replies "Yes, you may." Or "No, You may not, but you may______." The first person to reach to Vampire is the winner and t for the next round. Fun Halloween Requests: Zombie Crawl; Frankenstein walk; Spin a web; Fly like a bat; Roll like a pumpkin; Stomp like a troll. Hide and Shriek One person hides. The other players must tag the person finding them before they shriek. If the person shrieks first, they are now it and the game starts over. However, if the person who is it tags them before they get a chance to shriek, they must hide with the person until the next player finds them. The same rules apply. If the person who is hiding tags all the players before they shriek, they win the game instantly. Otherwise, count up the number of players each person tagged while they were it. A prize should be given. Optional to play outside. Don't Break My Pumpkin The new game we found and tried for Valentine's Day from mrsschmelzer.blogspot.com . The kids liked it, but the large clothespins were too easy for older kids. So, we tried the smaller craft ones. This was more challenging to clip on and time things out right to let go. Then, we went ultimate and got out the mini clothespins. You will need a large pumpkin cut out of tissue paper and a clothespin for each player. The smaller the clothespin the more challenging the game. Have players pass the pumpkin around from player to player only using clothespins NO HANDS! Play continues until the pumpkin is ripped in half. You could use white tissue paper and play don't rip my Ghost or bone Gray tissue paper and play don't break my headstone Black tissue paper and play Don't Break my Witches Hat or Cat Bugs Tic Tac Toe You can either just play that or have it ready for fast finishers. We used plastic spider rings. Ring Around the Rosie It's about the plague. Hold hands and walk in a circle chanting: Ring around the Roses, A pocket full of posies, Ashes! Ashes! We all fall down. Then, everybody falls down. Mad Libs A fun game or activity for fast finishers, I've even got them out at the treat table to keep kiddos under control. Think about the audience and ask yourself if they will understand the joke or if it is to advanced for them when picking a mad lib. There are tons of printables out there. Or just order some online. Mummy, Mummy, Witch Similar to Duck, Duck, Goose. Have all players sit in a circle. The person who is it walks around the circle gently touches everyone's head in order calling them a Mummy. Until they pick a player to be the Witch. Then, they touch that picked players head and gently drop calling them a Witch. That person must now standup and chase the player that was it, flying like a witch, trying to catch them and tag them before they have ran around the circle. If the person who was it gets tagged before they reach the Witches seat, they must be it again. However, if the player reached the Witches seat, the Witch is now it. I always tell my kids to pick someone who hasn't had a turn yet, to ensure everyone gets turn. Ping Pong Eyeballs Buy a table top ping pong set. Use ping pong eyeballs or make your own by painting iris's on ping pong balls. Eyeball Mini Golf Use the Eye Ball Ping Pong balls or paint golf balls to look like eyeballs. You could even paint them to look like pumpkins or other Halloween characters. Eyeball Pong Set up 12 glasses like you would for beer pong. Except each glass is filled with either a yummy normal soda or other drink and some are filled with nasty flavoring. Bounce the eyeball ping pong into the drinks, the one it lands in is the one you get. So, it's a gamble on if you get a yummy drink or a gross one. Non-alcoholic for the kiddos. Who's the Dude? Fibber Fibber is the kids version of BS. It's cards are all classic Halloween characters. It's really funny, because all the players wear glasses and when they get caught lying they have to add nose pieces like in the Pinocchio. Spider Bulls Eye My kids love this sticky spider slingshot game. Spider Races Cut the ring off of spider rings, leaving just the spider. Race by blowing the spiders with a straw. Poop the Potato 22 Mini Pumpkin Games Click here for a great list of fun games I didn't list here, since I already posted them. click here for a Amazon link to mini pumpkins. Pudding Pictionary (use Halloween words) Vampire Talk Party Game new on our blog Crypt Keeper's Crypt Rubber Chicken Games on our blog. If you are in charge of the Halloween Class Party there is usually a few games, a treat or sugar cookie decorating and a craft. I personally like Zombie sugar cookies. We made Zentangle Pumpkins for the craft at our last party. I grew way too many mini pumpkins, and it was a big hit!

Our son, Christopher, turned 3 this month. He loves anything to do with construction ... construction trucks, signs, all tools, hard hats etc. ... and so it was easy to pick a theme for his party. I found a bouncy house in the shape of a digger a few months back and it was a go! The color theme was orange, yellow and black. It was so much fun to decorate the house and I must admit I went a little crazy with the caution tape! I found so many great ideas on Pinterest and I hope by sharing my party with you I will be paying it forward. Feel free to message me in the comments if you have any questions where I found things (just be sure to leave contact info). Outside Front of the House Decor: This was the front walkway and door that greeted our guests. The ladder and tools are my husband's that I just decorated with caution tape and tied balloons to (not pictured). The front door read "Caution 3 Year Old Ahead" and is a sign I made by hand from a poster board and sharpie I purchased at Walmart. Favors: When you entered our house there was a table full of hard hats and tool belts. The hard hats I purchased from Amazon.com and the tool belt are from Home Depot (.77 cents each). I used our chalkboard and wrote "Welcome Workers! Grab your uniform and report to Site Supervisor Christopher." As kids arrived we let them pick which color of hat they preferred and then tied on their tool belt and explained what was inside. Each tool belt contained a construction party blower (found on Amazon.com) and then Work Orders (see explanation later in this post). My husband made a logo for our son's pretend construction company. We printed and cut them out as circles and taped them on the front of the hats. They read "Christopher Lehmann Destruction Inc. Crew". ;) For the favor, each child received a small truck in a bag filed with whoopers (boulders) and recces pieces (pebbles) when they left. The trucks come in a 5 pack and can be bought at Target, Walmart or Amazon.com. The favor tag was found online and can be downloaded here: Link Inside Decor: Let me tell you, decorating your house with caution tape is way too much fun! This is our front room and I simply taped up caution tape and a bunch of signs (the one on the mirror came in a four pack that I purchased from Amazon.com). I then added a cone and dump truck that we already owned to the toy dresser and we were set. Also if you want to keep your party guests out of certain areas of your home caution tape and a "Danger Keep Out" sign works great and totally fits the theme! Port-a-Potty sign on the bathroom door! Port-a-potty sign found here: Link See I told you I went a little crazy ... I even decorated the bathroom! I love this "Workers Present" sign I found online and I put it above the mantel since all the presents would go in this room. The sign can be download here: Link. I made the 3 banner using the leftover poster board from the sign on the front door and the "Party Zone" sign. The 3s were cut out of black construction paper and glued on to the poster board. One of my favorite decorations went behind our food table. I simply taped caution tape and black and orange streamers in a repeating pattern at the top of our cupboards and then let them hang to the floor. It created a dramatic look for practically nothing! Food: The food table decorations included a "Dig In" banner that my husband designed and printed on card-stock (I had found a pack of oranges/yellows at Michael's for $5). My husband also designed the food tags which labeled all the food as their constriction counterparts. My son already owned the three construction trucks and all the tools on the table and they added a fun touch! I found the adorable idea of calling the cutlery "tools" on Pinterest. I already had a paint can from my daughter's painting party and just crumbled up some napkins on the bottom of the can to give height to the forks and knives. The plate and napkin holder I just happened upon in the Target $1 bins. For the food I kept it simple. I have made the mistake in the past of trying to make a bunch of fancy food from scratch for parties and have realized (1) kids don't eat fancy food (2) I will have no life/sleep the day/night before and morning of the party (3) it really is not worth the effort. So even though I still love going all out on party decor and details, I go pretty simple when it comes to food. Drinks were lemonade and apple juice labeled as gas and diesel (another Pinterest idea). And the "Refuel Here" sign we saw on Pinterest and then my husband just redesigned it. I bought some warning tape on Amazon.com for $4 and wrapped that on the water bottles to make them more festive. The dessert table was a lot of fun but again I kept it simple (everything was bought except for the dirt cups). We had a cake, build your own dirt cup station with four different toppings, and then mini cupcakes. The "Party Zone" sign was another sign I made out of poster board I found at Walmart. The "Build Your Own Dirt Cup" my husband designed. The dessert table was decorated with caution tape and again tools we had around the house. This is a Costco cake and it works perfectly for a construction party! I just added a few small trucks that I already had bought to give away as the favor and some smashed up Oreos as dirt and I was good to go! The candles I bought at Walmart. I loved the idea of doing a build your own dirt cup station. I made the dirt cups ahead of time with chocolate pudding and crushed up Oreos. Then for toppings we had wafer cookies (2x4s), whoppers (boulders), recces pieces (pebbles) and gummy worms (worms). The kids LOVED it and had more than enough sugar during this party! Dig In Dirt Cup Topper Here: Link Cupcake Topper / Road Signs Here: Link My husband made this fun, themed sign for the outside garbage can. Games/Things for guests to do: The party was mainly in our backyard where we had a big bouncy digger, our play set/sandbox and tables set up. On each table in the middle I put a construction cone (two for $1 at the Dollar Store) with a dump truck printout that I had printed on white card stock and cut out (Link). I then ran balloons from a weight inside the cone out the top (not pictured). On each table I also placed coloring sheets (Link), crayons, and fake legos from the Target dollar bin. "Work Orders" were in each child's tool belt which they received as they arrived. The "Work Orders" listed the different locations where, now as construction workers, they had to do their "jobs". There was the Bounce Zone (the bounce house), the Wrecking Zone (the wrecking ball game), the Dig Zone (the sand box) and the Build Zone (inside the house in the front room where there were blocks and Duplo legos for the kids to build with). The older kids were really into this and checking off each box! I found the general template here (Link) and then my husband tweaked it a little bit to make it more personal. This is the Bounce Zone and as you can tell the birthday boy thought it was pretty cool! The second zone was the Wrecking Zone (another Pinterest idea)! I wrapped a bunch of boxes in brown and white packing paper and drew bricks on the brown and wood grain on the white. The kids could stack them as high as they wanted and then pull back the wrecking ball and knock them over. The wrecking ball was an old ball that we tied twine to and then covered in Duct Tape. We then attached it to the top of our swing set. It was a HUGE hit! The boxes. Our little construction worker! The third zone was the Dig Zone ... AKA the Sandbox! I just filled the sandbox with my son's construction trucks and shovels and then sprinkled some fake Legos (again Target $1 bin) so that the kids had something fun to dig up. The fourth and final zone was the Build Zone. In one room I put all our toys that kids could build with (i.e. connector blocks, wood blocks, Duplo Legos, train tracks etc.). This also became a great space for the babies and toddlers to play, away from the outside craziness. Can you tell by his face he had an amazing day?! Happy 3rd Birthday Christopher! Thank you for checking out my party blog and if you are planning a construction party for a special little one in your life I hope this post gives you a few ideas!

This year's party might have been my favorite yet. Although, I'm fairly certain I also said that about his pizza party, dinosaur party, wild things party, ocean party, puppy party, and Mickey Mouse party. Jacob wanted a "rocket ship party" and since we're going to be out of town on his birthday we planned it for one week earlier. I stuck with a loose outer space theme in black, white, and metallics. We picked a morning slot at a local play gym Happy Place Kids Gym and invited all his friends, including his classmates which made this years party larger than all of his previous parties. Having a morning party let me serve simple brunch foods like bagels & cream cheese, muffins, donuts, coffee, etc. I ordered a white cake from Publix as usual and added sprinkles, stars, a rocket ship and an astronaut on top to create a space theme. We filled the goody bags with astronaut ice cream, rock candy, moon pies, space alien water guns, and astronaut lollipops. I always pick out a book to match Jacob's theme and have all his guests sign it as a momento from his party - this year's book was If You Decide to Go to The Moon. The little moon cups might be my favorite detail, but it's a toss up with the astronaut ice cream. Happy Place made the whole process super easy for us. They helped with both set up and clean up and kept things running smoothly. The kids loved playing in the air conditioned gym and there was plenty of space for parents to sit and talk. We learned our lesson two years ago to never plan an outdoor party in June in Florida, and we haven't looked back since. We love you to the moon and back!!
