Halloween with Preschoolers

halloween with preschoolers

October is the start of the fall and winter holidays, and there is always lots to do. From beginning to end, October is a fun month for preschoolers. You are bound to find local festivals and pick-your-own farms for finding the perfect pumpkin, but there are some activities you should make sure to do with your preschooler this fall.

  1. Watch It’s The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown with your preschooler. Charlie Brown and his friends will introduce your child to Halloween traditions, with picking pumpkins, wearing costumes, trick-or-treating, and attending parties. They’ll be ready for all the fall’s activities!
  2. Pick a pumpkin, carve it up, and roast the pumpkin seeds! Perhaps my favorite fall activity! If you have never carved a pumpkin with your child, spend an afternoon opening up a pumpkin and cleaning it out. Talk about the parts of the pumpkin, how farmers use the seeds, and then roast the pumpkin seeds for a healthy snack.
  3. Dress up in family Halloween costumes! The whole family can get in on the fun this year with themed costumes: Star Wars, The Incredibles, or a whole family of Lego people! Make sure to take photos with everyone in their costumes and in character! Help your preschooler get into character by telling them things their character would say, if they are unfamiliar with their character. Your preschooler will love getting to act out another person!
  4. There’s always a reason to read! Enjoy reading about Halloween this fall with your preschooler with Room on the Broom, Halloween Trick-Or-Treat, and Los Gatos Black on Halloween. Halloween isn’t so scary after reading these fun books with your preschoolers!
  5. Go trick-or-treating! Get together with a group of your child’s friends or friends in your neighborhood and trick-or-treat door to door. It’s always more fun in a group! Make sure to snap a group photo of your preschoolers while they are enjoying this fun tradition!

With these fun activities, October will be a month your preschooler will look forward to all year!
