A touch-and-feel game where kids reach through a stained sheet to identify gross-out Halloween treats.
Our own summary of the original — the full post and photos live at theidearoom.net.
This sensory game uses a stained sheet with holes and bowls of creatively named creepy foods. Players stick their hands through the holes to feel and guess each item. A nearby sink makes cleanup easy after the fun.

Directions
- Start with a used white bed sheet and create dark splotches by spilling stain-causing substances on it.
- Assemble bowls of spooky-themed snacks: dried apricots (goblin ears), spaghetti with sauce (bat guts), grapes (witch eyeballs), small pickles (Frankenstein fingers), salsa (vampire vomit), and gum (werewolf fangs).
- Cut several arm-sized openings in the now-stained sheet.
- Position the bowls behind the sheet so each bowl is accessible through a hole.
- Let children reach through the openings to feel the food items and try to identify what they're touching.
- Place the game station near a sink so kids can clean their hands right after each turn.
