Pumpkin Clay Workshop
Instead of traditional autumn pumpkins, kids can create colorful spring pumpkins using vibrant-colored clay, such as pink, green, or yellow. Decorate them with paper flowers, toy insects, or butterflies.
Ghostly Treasure Hunt
In this treasure hunt, kids must find Halloween characters hidden among flowers and butterflies. You can hide small colorful pumpkins, little ghost figures with wings, or candies wrapped in colorful paper.
Recycled Costume Parade
Instead of traditional Halloween costumes, kids should create outfits that combine the spooky with the spring-like, using recycled materials. For example, a skeleton with a flower crown and sunglasses, or a mummy wrapped in paper decorated with flower petals or twigs.
Floral Halloween Bingo
Create a bingo game with images of Halloween characters surrounded by spring elements, such as pumpkins decorated with flowers, ghosts wearing flower hats, and skeletons with sunglasses. Invite your kids to draw the characters and then make copies of these to create a new game made by them.
Complete the story
Invite your kids to invent fantastic or “scary” stories and add a humorous twist to each one. They can incorporate typical spring situations, like a “witches’ picnic” or a “flower-allergic ghost.” Suggest main themes like this and let your kids complete the story. Remind them to keep it as lighthearted as possible to avoid scaring anyone.
Adorable Halloween Cookies
In this activity, kids can create butter cookies shaped like pumpkins, ghosts, bats, and other classic Halloween characters, but with an adorable and spring-like twist. They will use brightly colored icing and decorations such as sugar flowers, fondant butterflies, or small edible insects.
