    Creepy and Crafty Halloween Party for Kids

    September 13, 2019 By Brandy Leave a Comment

    Kids love creating projects together! This year, throw a creepy and crafty Halloween party for kids with fun craft kits to put together, an interactive coloring table, yummy treats and more! This post contains affiliate links.

    halloween party for kids

    When it comes to Halloween do you like cute decor or spooky decor? I'm ALL about the cute decor, but my kids like to be spooked. Our home is a compromise between the two, and over the years, I've come around to liking more of their skeleton friends. This cute and crafty Halloween party is designed just for kids! My kids love making things to take home when they go to parties and this party is chalk full of them! Are ready for a visual tour? Let's go!

    It's always a good idea to have an activity for kids to do while all of the guests are arriving to avoid having them running around your house. As soon as they start to arrive, guide them to the table and they can start coloring the Halloween table runner or begin one of the cute craft projects!

    I LOVE the coloring page table runners from Oriental Trading. They are so fun, inexpensive, and the perfect way to bring everything together.

    To keep the craft kits in one place, I tucked them into these black treat boxes. They are cupcake boxes, but work for so many other things.

    I put a Halloween foamie kit and a charm bracelet kit inside each box.

    Halloween mermaids, unicorns and narwhals---THEY ARE A THING. Who knew?

    I bought a bag of bones to randomly place on the table. Creepy, but also kind of cute the way it is holding scissors, and the fun bull dog is holding an artist's brush!

    After the crafts have been made (or while the crafts are being made---because let's be real here. Those kiddos are going to want to sneak a treat or two) they can enjoy the treat spread!

    halloween pretzels, popcorn balls, gummy spiders and grapes

    Oriental Trading had SO many fun party foods for kids! I used slate platters for the food and placed mandarin oranges and clusters of grapes all around. Then I tucked in some creepy foods like gummy spiders, Halloween pretzels, Halloween fruit roll ups and Halloween popcorn balls.

    These popcorn balls are delicious and also make a great take-home favor!

    Speaking of take home favors, how fun are these treat bags with toppers? Each pack comes with pumpkins, ghosts, bats and spiders. Just fold down the treat bag (they are really long!) to the desired height and staple the topper across!

    Have you ever tried the Zombie Skittles? They are basically Bertie Botts in Skittle Form. Most taste great, but then you get a nasty mystery flavor and all bets are off.
