Frog in the Cauldron
How to play
Grab your buckets and fill them with slime or sludge, and then line up a table or lay on the ground. The students can then take it in turns to throw a frog (or a ball) and try and get it in the bucket. When they get it in there they have to put their hand in the slime, and maybe even put extra prizes in there too. This Halloween activity is great for practicing throwing skills.

Spiders Web Obstacle Course
How to play
Use the tape and skipping ropes to create an obstacle course, which will make the room look like a spider’s web. The children then must use all of their flexibility, balance and agility to manoeuvre themselves from one side of the room to the other. If you want to make this Halloween activity more interesting, you could split the students pairs with one blindfolded and the other has to talk them through the obstacle course. Just make sure the Spiders don't get you!!!!!

What time is it Mr Werewolf?
How to play
This is a playground classic but with a Halloween twist. The designated ‘Werewolf’ stands with their back to the class. The players then shout out; ‘What time is it Mr Werewolf?’. They turn and answers with a time. They then move the steps forward relating to the time. The players then get closer and closer to Mr Werewolf, until they howl and shout Halloween Time. To turn players into another Werewolf they must be hit with a dodgeball. Eventually there will be more and more wolves.
