Halloween season is here and what better way to celebrate the spooky season than with a guide to Halloween activities for kids, all in one place! We just came back from a fun and festive vacation that I consider to be:
The Ultimate Halloween Staycation 👻🎃
From water park thrills to spooky chills — Great Wolf Lodge makes Halloween unforgettable with their Howl-O-Ween event. You can watch a full recap of our trip, but I share a guide to Halloween activities for kids with more details below!
Accommodations as a Family of 5:
As a family of 5, being in a comfortable and spacious resort is always top of mind! We were happy to enjoy spacious family accommodations while the entire resort transforms with spooky décor! And the best part is that Water Park access is included with every stay, so I had to add it to our guide to Halloween activities for kids!
They have a mega indoor water park for all ages, with a 105,000-square-feet indoor water park kept at a perfect 84 degrees year-round. My favorite moment was watching my 6-year-old surf like a pro on the indoor surf simulation which you can catch here! The water park is such a fun time, but the real reason we came was for all the special Halloween activities which I’ll tell you all about next!
A Guide to Halloween Activities:
We kicked off the spooky season at Great Wolf Lodge and wow.. it’s a vibe! It was full of halloween activities for kids, starting with:
🎃 Trick-or-Treating: a not-so-scary trail with treats around every corner
🎃 Monster Bash Dance Party: such a fun time for the whole family!
🎃 Howl-O-Ween Crafts: they provide kits for the kids to be as creative as they want
🎃 Boo Bingo: another one of the many halloween activities for kids
And you can even enjoy some Fa-Boo-Lous drinks which include Halloween cocktails for adults and mocktails for the little ones! We also headed to the Northern Lights Arcade, where the whole family was entertained! You can watch more here. We had such a great time and this really made our guide to Halloween activities for kids this spooky season!
First time here and it wore us out in the best way. The waterpark didn’t disappoint (even my husband was trying to surf), the food was on point, and the Howl-O-Ween fun had us all smiling. It was the best way to celebrate the spooky season full of halloween activities for kids making this a great addition to our guide to Halloween activities.
