The Preschoolers had lots of fun at their Halloween party. The activities they did were guessing the witch, tossing eyeballs in the bucket, making Spookily the Pumpkin, and making lanyards. The preschool has a morning and afternoon class. Each of those classes really enjoyed their Halloween Party along with dressing up in their costumes!
Kindergarten
All of the kindergarteners were dressed up and looked amazing for Halloween. Mrs. Haug’s class and Mrs. Roever’s class were having so much fun doing activities like bean bag tossing into a pumpkin, Halloween Bingo, dice rolling, and stacking spiders of straws connected to play dough. There was even some spooky Halloween music playing in the background to set the fun mood! All of the kids looked amazing in their costumes and had so much fun playing the games. All of the kids had fun dressing up and can’t wait to get a lot of candy!
First Grade
The kids had a ton of fun at their Halloween parties. There were lots of giggles and laughter.

The kids had yummy snacks such as juice boxes and the donuts that they decorated. The room was filled with laughs and smiles and the kids had an amazing time.
Second Grade
The kids started their Halloween party off by getting to their amazing costumes and then started off with a teamwork activity by forming a line and passing ten candy corns off a paper pumpkin and down the line with plastic spoons to get to the other paper pumpkin. After that, they played a fun round of Halloween bingo with candy corn marking their spots. They enjoyed laughing about kids getting a bingo and having fun with their teacher. They did a fun art spider web activity by drawing a spider web with a white colored pencil onto a paper plate and painting it.
Third Grade
