Any ideas for a Kindergarten Halloween party with a duck theme?

Asked by Supacase (14568points) September 22nd, 2011

Crazy, right? Well, I have to make it work for 24 5/6 year olds for one hour. What on Earth am I going to do??

There are 3 KG classes. One class is the ducks, one is the frogs and the other is the pirates. We were supposed to agree on a theme for the grade and, of course, Pirate Mom wanted to do pirates, but that it isn’t fair to the duck and frog classes. (Hey! Mr. Dean’s class is the pirates. We’re the ducks, not the pirates!) The idea of doing room-themed parties was tossed around, but what the hell do you do for frogs or ducks?

We decided on spiders. Yay. Oh, wait. Pirate Mom decides last minute that it will be pirates for her room so Frog Mom and I are kind of stuck. At least Frog Mom can work with a swamp theme or something.

I need crafts, games and most of all a way to tie all of this in to Halloween. HELP!!!

How about the Quacked up Halloween Duck Party. Let the kids all wear duck bills regardless of the costume they pick. A princess with a duck bill, a pirate with a duck bill, a cowboy with a duck bill…

Here’s some game ideas:

Daffy duck would have a field day with the pirates.

How about picking different ducks for each kid throwing them into a hat and have the kids pick from the hat and do an interpretation of what they think that duck acts or sounds like. They could also draw what they think that duck would look like.

Rubber duck races? Perhaps the kids could decorate their own rubber ducks in racing colours and could wear their duck’s colours too? Sort of like race horses but with rubber ducks?

Those two short movies could entertain and be duck themed!

Every 10 minutes, for 2 minutes, everybody communicates by merely quacking and gesturing with their butts. Lol.

Duckwalk racing. Everyone has to assume the position for the race.
Limbo. Isn’t that obvious? Duck!
Ugly duckling contest. You’d have to finesse this somehow so it doesn’t become cruel, and some kid ends up thinking s/he’s ugly.
Cheese and quackers for snacks.

There’s no reason you couldn’t party with the frogs, in fact. Ducks like swamps.
