Apple Game
The Apple game is one of the favorite halloween kid games. It's also one of the very fun kids outdoor party games.
2 or more players
Ages 5 and up
Need: apple for each player, yarn or other string
Relay races needn't be played with kids running around!
This game has the kids standing still while still "running" a race against the other players.
An adult has to tie a string around each apple (the stem). If it's too difficult, larger cookies can substitute for apples.
Then hang the apples or cookies so that they hang in front of the player's faces.
An outdoor clothes line works very well for this so it's best to play this game outside.
The kids line up in front of each apple or cookie and put their hands behind their backs.
The adult calls out, "Ready, set, GO!" and each player tries to bite into their apple or cookie.
The winner is the first person who eats most of the apple or the entire cookie.
For younger children, use smaller cookies as it can be difficult for them to eat an entire "big" cookie!
This may look like an easy game, but when the clothes line is swinging from the kids, it's really not easy to get that cookie or apple in your mouth!
If it's too difficult for youngsters with their hands behind their backs you can let young kids use their hands. Or maybe even just one hand.
