This doesn’t mean that Halloween is cancelled, families can still have a spooky night with these creative ideas. Here are my top picks for Halloween activities for kids in Melbourne during covid.

Halloween Pumpkin Hunt
Melbourne families are being encouraged to leave a pumpkin in their front window or out the front of their house so kids can go on a Halloween Pumpkin Hunt around their local neighbourhood. Every time kids spot a pumpkin you can hand them a little treat.

Spoonville is transforming into Spooky Spoonville this Halloween. Kids can decorate a wooden spoon with the scariest monster, witch, ghost or creature. Several Spooky Spoonvilles are popping up around Melbourne, search for a Spooky Spoonville in your local area.
