How to play to face the pumpkin

This game of putting the face to the pumpkin for Halloween is very similar, if not equal, to a well-known game called putting the tail on the donkey. All you have to do is buy the drawing of a pumpkin or a real pumpkin, but of course, have the pumpkin without the face, since it will be the children who have to put the eyes, nose and mouth to the pumpkin. Here we explain step by step how to play to put the face of the pumpkin. If you want to see more games for kids on Halloween, look here.

Steps to follow:

one

To make the pumpkin face game, you have to buy or draw a paper pumpkin or buy a real pumpkin. Keep in mind that the pumpkin does not have to have eyes, nose, or mouth.

two

Once you have the pumpkin, you have to make a few eyes, noses and mouths with paper, and put double-sided, adhesive tape on the back. So that the children can hook it in the pumpkin.

Then you have to bandage the eyes of a child with a handkerchief and give him a few turns on himself, so that he gets a little dizzy and loses his orientation.

4

The child will have to approach the pumpkin and hook an eye, nose or mouth depending on what you have given. It is better that each child hooks only one thing and in the end see the result obtained. You will see that very funny faces end up coming out.

You can do this Halloween game in many ways. If you have many children at the party, we recommend that you buy more than one pumpkin and the children play in teams, so it will be more competitive and fun, as more fun faces will be created.

Tips
  • We recommend that the eyes, mouth and nose have adhesive tape on the back, but you can also make the nose, mouth and eyes of paper, and hook through a thumbtack.
  • Do not give children a lot of laps, if they become very dizzy they can hit the furniture or even fall to the floor
