Balloon Relay

Divide kids into 2 teams. Each team has a balloon (1 orange balloon and 1 black balloon).

Half of each team is at opposite ends of the room.

The first player of each team must keep the balloon from hitting the ground without actually holding on to the balloon. The player would hit the balloon in such a way that it goes in the air but ahead of the player so they have to run to hit it again. This continues till they tag a teammate on the other side of the room. They them sit down at the back and the second player continues in the same way, passing the balloon to the teammate at the opposite side of the room. This continues until all players are sitting. The winners receive a prize or prizes of your choosing.

Note: To make this even more fun, have the kids decorate their balloons however they'd like. They could draw on funny jack-o-lantern faces, pictures of witches, black cats, whatever they can think of to make the balloons more halloween-looking.

Candy Toss

Take a piece of orange or black construction paper and draw 3 circles in the middle of the paper. Make the circles three different sizes so it resembles a bull's eye (the size of the circles will depend on the age of the kids, the older the kids the smaller the circle). Color each circle a different color and write in different point values for each circle.

Have the kids each throw a different trick-or-treat candy. Award prizes depending on which circle the child's candy lands on. The one who lands on the bull's eye in the middle can get an extra-special prize.

Halloween Candy Hunt

Hide Halloween candies all over the house or yard. Have the kids search for them like they would an Easter egg hunt. Designate a certain type of candy as the halloween prize. The child who finds this candy wins a prize or can have first pick from assorted prizes which are contained in a plastic pumpkin, a plastic skull, or a box decorated with halloween pictures and stickers.

Give a prize for the person who finds the most candies, the most of certain types of candies, the least candies, etc. (this way there are no hard feelings, especially when smaller children are involved.
