GOING BATTY
Here is a bat decoration that I made with a toilet paper roll. This is really easy to do and can be hung up around the room from the ceiling for Halloween parties or gatherings.
TIME TO GET MESSY!
Get some of the tiny little mini pumpkins and cut the tops off. Let the kids sift through the pulp to gather all the seeds. Save the seeds to count and then make a graph of how many seeds we found in each pumpkin.
Use paper cutouts in the shape of a seed to make a picture graph. Lastly, have the children compare the numbers of seeds found in each pumpkin. As an extension, you can measure each pumpkin to get the diameter and see if there is a correlation between the size and the number of seeds it has.
PUMPKIN TOSS
We have done this activity for a few years and it is especially good for parties or other events such as a fall fair where you have stations set up. A Jack-O-Lantern bean bag toss. I just cut this from butcher paper, laminated it and attached it to a cardboard box that I also cut holes in.
You can use any bean bags. Either take some from another game you have or make some festive ones like the ones pictured below from Ms. Carlie's Little Learners. No rules or points, but if you want, you can have some science inquiry questions ready to ask them if they get their beanbag through the hole.
PARTY SNACKS
Here's a tasty, healthy snack that is nice and easy. Little ones will love these eyeballs. I have made these and they are yummy!
Happy Halloween to you and the kiddos in your class!

Accordingly, this organization proceeds on a heedless spending spree, as yet imagining that spending an extra trillion or two on a lethally defective medicinal services change arrangement is a smart thought, squandering billions of dollars on reserves and inefficient pork barrel ventures, keeping on extending our military nearness around the globe, and offering token spending solidifies on just a segment of the Federal spending plan.
