How to Play Halloween This or That
Print the Halloween This or That game and have kids look at each pair of choices.
For every row, choose one favorite.
You can play by simply pointing to a choice, taking turns answering aloud or asking each child to explain why they picked one option over the other.
For a group game, read each pair aloud and have kids move to one side of the room for the first choice and the other side for the second.
You can also tally everyone’s answers to find the most popular Halloween choices in the group.
Fun Ways to Use This Halloween This or That Game
🎃 Halloween Party: Use it as an easy icebreaker or group game before other party activities.
🏫 Classroom: Add it to a Halloween morning meeting, brain break or seasonal class discussion.
🏠 Homeschool: Use the choices as quick conversation prompts between lessons.
👨👩👧👦 Family Game Night: Compare Halloween favorites and see which answers everyone has in common.
🍬 Trick-or-Treat Night: Play while waiting for trick-or-treaters or before heading out for the evening.
👻 Halloween Event: Add it to a classroom station, community event or kids’ Halloween activity table.
Turn the Choices Into Halloween Conversation Starters
The game can also be used to encourage kids to explain their choices.
Instead of stopping after “pumpkins” or “ghosts,” ask a simple follow-up question such as:
Why did you choose that one?
Kids can share a favorite Halloween memory, explain what they like about their choice or compare answers with someone else.
For younger children, simply choosing between the two pictures is enough to make the game fun.
Halloween This or That Group Game Ideas
Try taking a quick vote for every pair and keeping score to see which choice wins.
You could also ask kids to predict which choice will be most popular before everyone answers.
For even more movement, assign opposite sides of the room to each choice and let kids walk to the side that matches their answer.
No elimination is needed — everyone can keep playing through all 12 choices.
