Every year fall kicks off the holiday season. With Halloween coming up in a few short weeks I’ve been looking for fun and inexpensive activities for my daughters.
Here are seven of the best Halloween activities for kids. (We’re working on a few of these right now!)
# 1 – Magic Jack-O-Lantern
A balloon, some household supplies, and an old water bottle is all you need to make your Jack-O-Lantern come to life. Little kids would love this.

# 2 – Mason Jar Luminaries
If you’re like me and hoard both, Mason Jars and paint supplies then I don’t think you’ll find a prettier Halloween activity to do with the kiddos.

# 6 – Pumpkin Pie Play Dough
This could possibly be the best play dough you’ve every smelt in your life. However, I’m sure it doesn’t taste as good at is smells so try and keep your kids from eating it!
