What to Do

• Let each child put their foot in white paint and make their footprint upside down on a piece of black paper. Glu googly eyes on the heel of the foot. Enjoy these ghostly feet.

Cut out several different Halloween figures (jack-o'-lantern, witch, ghost, cat, etc.). Then mix them all up and let your children sort them.

(to the tune of: Ring Around the Rosie)
Put a picture of a pumpkin on the floor and sing:
Ring around the Pumpkin,
Pocket full of nuts,
Leaves, leaves,
They all fall down.
We continued by adding new movements as we danced and sang around a pumpkin.
March around the pumpkin,
pocket full of nuts,
leaves, leaves,
they all fall down.
Stomp around the pumpkin,
pocket full of nuts,
leaves, leaves,
they all fall down.
Tip-toe around the pumpkin,
pocket full of nuts,
leaves, leaves,
they all fall down.
Jump around the pumpkin,
pocket full of nuts,
leaves, leaves,
they all fall down.

Go on a scavengar hunt with your class in search of objects shaped like a traingle. Ask them to also bring one triangular shaped object from home.
