Halloween 2020 is just around the corner and everyone is looking for ways to make it fun for their kids. With COVID-19 still on the rise around the world, parents are trying their best to maintain a safe environment for their children and families. With the need for social distancing and other safety protocols, there are some people online who have come up with some brilliant ways to maintain a safe environment this spooky season.
These Halloween loot bags that keep you at a distance.
These bags are attached to a pretty long pole that allows for your kids to maintain their distance from the homes of others. And, you can sanitize the candy before they go digging in.
Wear a Halloween-themed mask for trick-or-treating.
If you plan on taking your kids out and about for Halloween, you may want to ensure that you wear a mask. You can pick up some spooky-themed masks to get in the spirit.
Put up some signs to guarantee social distancing.
Decorate your house with spooky decorations, but also make sure that there are signs to ensure social distancing, too. Make sure to practice what you preach, too!
Host a “virtual” Halloween party.
Halloween doesn’t have to be in person all the time. While the COVID-19 pandemic is still around, it’s best to keep all big parties virtual for the time being.
Drop off some “you’ve been booed” bags.
Many people are using fun and festive ways to still bring joy to their friends and family by making some spirited goody bags. Drop off some “you’ve been booed” bags to the kids in the neighborhood.
Make a candy graveyard.
There’s nothing that is more on-brand for Halloween than a graveyard filled with candy. You can have each area of the graveyard filled with a different candy.
Make a candy wall.
Decorate a wall of your house or a fence with vines that you can decorate with all different types and bags of candy.
Make a candy slide.
Families online have been making candy slides with pipes and decorations so that the homeowner can be 6 feet away from the trick-or-treaters. Delivery candy safely and socially distanced!
Use s’mores sticks to put candy all over the yard.
You can put candy all over the yard like picket signs for trick-or-treaters to come and pull at their own discretion. This way, no one has to really come in contact with each other at all.
Leave it to the meme-makers to come up with this idea.
Grab a “money gun” or a super soaker and fill it with candy. Boom! Start making it rain M&Ms and Skittles all over the front yard of your home. Hilarious.
One Reddit user came up with a hilarious way to deliver candy.
Obviously, this isn’t the best way to deliver candy to kids. But, if we’re talking social distancing, this is absolutely hilarious!
