3. Scavenger Hunts

There's two fun ways to make a fun, simple Halloween scavenger hunt: Either have the kids search for Halloween items such as a Jack-o'-Lantern, a broom or black cat, and earn candy at each or have them tick off a list of the candy items themselves. Either way, there's candy, so it's a win-win.

Pinterest has plenty of options, of course, but one of our favorites is found on Hey, Let's Make Stuff. In addition to a free printable scavenger hunt, there's also Halloween Bingo and a Halloween word search on the website.
