Halloween Countdown Calendar

This is our 4th year to do our Halloween countdown calendar.  The kids look forward to this all year and can't wait to hear what the activity is for each night.  I try my best to make them all Halloween / Fall related, but that doesn't always happen.  We were especially busy this October, so sometimes non Halloween related activities counted this year.


Day 1 : Primrose Movie Night at the Ballpark to watch Hotel Transylvania 2






Day 2 : Make Smores Bars





Day 3: Halloween Tic Tac Toe



Day 4: New Halloween PJ's






Day 5: Halloween Bingo



Day 6: Halloween Foil Window Clings (Evan wasn't a good listener at soccer practice, so only Emily got to participate this day)


 Day 7: Halloween Sponge Capsules and Halloween Door Hanger Craft from Mimi






Day 8: KK's for Dinner (not many pics, but ones just to prove we were there)




Day 9: Pumpkin Patch





Day 10: Donut Pumpkins (a pinterest fail!)



Day 11:Witch Hat Ring Toss (Evan lost calendar activities for not being a good listener)



Day 12:  Toilet Paper Mummy (Evan lost calendar activities for not being a good listener)



Day 13:Both kids lost the calendar today.  :(

Day 14: Painting Pumpkins






Day 15: Dinner at Jake's for Lauren's Birthday


Day 16: Halloween Scavenger Hunt and New Pajamas








Day 17: Marshmallow Ghosts



Day 18: Halloween Bracelets (Mimi gave Emily this activity and I tried to use it a day that Evan didn't get to participate, but he wanted to make them too, so we used it a day both of them got to do it).



Day 19: New Halloween Books


Day 20: Mummy Dogs for Dinner


Day 21: Donut Spiders


Day 22: Dinner (and swimming) at Mimi's to celebrate Emily's birthday

Day 25: Halloween Masks


Day 26: Pin the Nose on the Pumpkin





Day 27: Spider Craft


Day 28: Merit Trick or Treating





Day 29: Make Smores




Day 30: Carve Pumpkins.  Neither of the kids were interested in doing the actual carving or cleaning out of the pumpkins.  Instead I let Em draw a face on one and I carved it.  Shawn carved the other using a template. 


Shawn's on the left and mine and Em's on the right.

Day 31: Trick or Treating
