6. Perform some Halloween karaoke. There are plenty of Halloween songs to choose from. Dress up in costume, and sing your hearts out. Don’t be afraid to make a fool of yourself (and some awesome family memories at the same time).

7. Have aHalloween moviemarathon.

Whether you live for horror films or prefer something a little more family friendly (“It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown,” anyone?), Halloween is the perfect excuse to snuggle on the couch with your family and a big bowl of popcorn (try adding some candy corn into the mix if you dare).

8. Get creativewith your decorating. If you’ve never been big on Halloween decorating before, this year is the perfect opportunity to start. Create a Halloween wreath out of orange and black ribbon, or make some tissue paper ghosts. Have a family craft night to get everything ready. Whether you go spooky or fun, you can’t go wrong.

9. Play some old-fashioned Halloween games. Bob for apples, have a mummy relay race (try subbing toilet paper for real ribbon or panty hose), play pumpkin ring toss, and just get silly with your family. Offer candy or other treats as prizes for the little ones.

10. Tell some ghost stories! If your kids are old enough to handle some lighthearted ghouly fun, research and share some ghost stories. Look up some ghost tales from your local area, and if you’re brave enough, make plans to visit those places.
