Halloween Games and Activities

This is a great game I recently found : Buried Words. Here is my Halloween variation.

Materials Needed:

• Pad of paper for each guest (see "Back to School" sales)
• Pen or pencil for each guest (also on sale in the Fall)

How to Play:

1. Show your guests an example of a buried word: "He held the hag hostage."
2. Point out the buried word: "He held the hag hostage." (ghost)
3. Explain that the buried word must be a noun related to Halloween and that it should be contained in a clearly understandable sentence.
4. Give your guests 5 minutes to come up with their buried word sentence.
5. Everyone trades their sentence with another person across the room (those that don’t finish are out).
6. The person to correctly identify the buried word of their partner’s sentence first wins.
7. Be sure to reward the winner with a favor.

Play as many rounds as you like. Have fun!
