Halloween is on the near horizon and today I’d like to share our favorite Halloween games. Members of the My Little Poppies Gameschool Community have been asking me about holiday gameschooling and I am determined to share oodles of holiday-themed games with you!


If your kids are anything like mine, they get super pumped as soon as October rolls into town. Because, in their world, October means one thing and one thing only: HALLOWEEN.

For real, this is an actual scene in my house. My kids were watching CuriosityStream together and, naturally, they let Fergus Femur in on the fun!

The only trouble with Halloween excitement is that it can make traditional learning a bit… tricky. And that’s why games are such a wonderful learning resource! Whenever learning feels tricky in our house, I pull out some games and connect with my kids. The play decreases my homeschool mama stress and my children always learn something!

If your children are over-the-moon excited for Halloween, you’re going to love the resources in this post!

Let’s face it- When our children are super-excited for a certain holiday, not a ton of learning is happening, at least not in the traditional sense. Our new Holiday Gameschooling series will help you through those holiday hiccups!

The best Halloween games for your homeschool 

Here are the best Halloween-themed and Halloween-ish games for your gameschooling enjoyment!


Love Harry Potter?

I know, not technically Halloween-related, but if your kids are anything like my little Potterheads, that’s a frequent costume!
