Feed the Ghost Fine Motor Halloween Activity
Turn leftover Halloween candy dispensers into a spooky fine motor game that kids will love!
Our own summary of the original — the full post and photos live at stillplayingschool.com.
This Halloween activity repurposes Skittles Twist & Pour dispensers after emptying them. Kids use chopsticks or their fingers to feed pom-poms into the ghost's mouth, practicing fine motor skills. It's a fun way to reuse candy packaging for skill-building play.
Directions
- Locate Halloween-themed Skittles Twist & Pour candy dispensers.
- Turn the dispenser to release the candy from its mouth.
- Repurpose the now-empty dispenser as a fine motor skills station.
- Provide training chopsticks and pom-poms.
- Have older children use the chopsticks to 'feed' the ghost, while younger kids can simply push pom-poms into the ghost's mouth to strengthen their pincer grasp.
