If you’re looking for some non-candy halloween classroom treats for your little ones school party, you’ve gotta see these 31 scary cute ideas!
Hi friends,
My kids absolutely love Halloween! I mean, who doesn’t?
During the last week of October our kids school has so many fun things going on! They have a trunk or treat, let the kids dress up in their costumes and even a mini Halloween party!
We wanted to send in some fun treats for all their classroom friends to take home. Only thing was, we didn’t want to send home even more candy! (trying not to be the most hated mom in the class lol)
Anyway, after hours of searching I found a bunch of scary cute non-candy halloween treat ideas and thought I’d share them with you too! Let’s get into it!
Non-Candy Halloween Classroom Treats
1. Cauldron Bubbles
These bubble wands are the perfect colors for Halloween! The little tag is so dang cute too. I’m pretty sure Target sells these colored bubble wands in their dollar spot during spooky season. Keep an eye out!
2. Ex-Straw Spooky
Simple but fun! What kid doesn’t go crazy for a good crazy straw? These Halloween straws would go PERFECTLY with this “ex-straw spooky” tag!
3. Halloween Party Poppers
How fun and creative are these? Super cute AND something you and your kiddos can make together as a fun craft!
4. Bat pudding cups
It’s frickin’ bats how much we love Halloween! lol This is super cute and easy! Pick up some black glitter card stock from your local Hobby Lobby or Michaels and cut into wing shapes. Add some googly eyes with a hot glue gun and you’re done!
5. Halloween wristbands
I’m not sure why, but I remember getting a bracelet for anything was literally the best thing ever! You’d see the entire classroom wearing them for the next week and a half like they were gold lol
6. Halloween juice monsters
Another fun craft you can get your little ones to help you make! These colors are perfect too!
7. Go-Go Mummies
Go-Go squeezes are the best! As a momma of three, yes please! Send my kids home with applesauce over candy any day! These mummies are super cute and extremely easy to make! All you need is a roll of white streamers, sticky googly eyes and tape!
8. Halloween boo-bbles
Next, another bubble Halloween treat! These might be a more cost efficient option if you’re on a tight budget. You can grab and entire 48 pack for under $13 dollars!
9. Monster noses
How stinking adorable are these EOS lip balm classroom treats? Super practical and not just junk that will be thrown away by the end of the week!
10. Halloween slap bands
Believe it or not, slap bracelets are STILL just as popular with kids these days as they were in the 90’s! I think something about hearing the slap as they wrap around your wrists will always be appealing to kids!
11. Bracelet making kit
Omg, omg omg! These are probably my favorite non-candy halloween classroom treats idea! A make your own Halloween bracelet kit? Stahp! So cute!
12. Halloween fidget balls
Fidget toys like stress balls are always a hit with kids! These are super cute too!
13. TicTac ghost poop
Okay, let’s be honest! I know this is a non-candy post but who take TicTacs like they were candy as a kid? Don’t be shy – lol These “ghost poop” TicTacs are super fun!
14. Witches broom(pretzel)sticks
Aw, a snack and a gift in one! Check your local dollar tree. They most likely have 12 packs of Halloween pencils for literally a dollar. Grab 2 or 3 packs and you’ll have enough for an entire class for under $5! Add some pretzel sticks in a cellophane bag and you’re done!
15. Halloween tattoos
I feel like temporary tattoos are always a no-fail option for kids!
16. Popcorn skeletons
I swear, people are so dang creative! Draw a few different skeleton faces on cellophane bags and add popcorn for a spooky treat!
17. Cheese stick ghosts
Not only are these ghost string cheese fun in a Halloween lunch, they also make a great non-candy Halloween classroom treat! Fun and super easy!
18. Goldfish jack-o-lanterns
Another similar idea to the popcorn skulls! How about goldfish jack-o-lanterns?! Plus, to make these even easier than they already are, look what I found! Jack-o-lantern cellophane bags – perfect!
19. Fang-tastic Halloween
Here’s a cheap and easy idea! You can find these cheapy Halloween fangs just about anywhere during October! Pick up a bag or two of them, add this cute tag that says “Have a FANGtastic Halloween” and you’re golden!
20. Stretchy skeletons
Speaking of cheapy Halloween toys, these stretchy skeletons are cheap and fun too! Add them to any of these ideas or simply add a tag of your own for an easy peasy idea!
21. Franken-slime
Okay.. tread carefully with this idea. I know slime isn’t a huge parent favorite but, it’s Halloween! I think they’d understand. Plus, look how cute this came out!
22. Halloween cups
Jello, fruit cups and pudding are another easy no-fail option! A simple, fun, Halloween twist on a classic snack!
23. Frankenstein apples
Apples are a fall staple! Nothing fancy with this idea, just a green apple in a cellophane bag with a drawn on Frankenstein face. If you wanted to add a little extra something you could find mini single serving caramel dips too!
24. Halloween playdough buddies
We LOVE making homemade playdough in this house! It’s super easy and comes together in just minutes. Plus, you can add your own scents! I imagine the green one being apple scented, the ghost being vanilla scented and the pumpkin being well, pumpkin spice scented!
25. Halloween stamps
These stampers would be perfect for a younger classroom like Pre-k or kindergarten!
26. Spider eggs
Fun, easy AND healthy? Yup! Just be sure to check with your teacher. Some schools are now only accepting pre-packaged snacks.
27. Playdoh spiders
Okay, I want a playdoh pet spider! So cute! You can find a giant pack of these mini Playdoh containers for under $20!
28. Jack-o-lantern slinky
I found these little trinket jack-o-lantern slinkies and thought they would be a fun little gift too! They don’t last long but they’re cheap and still fun for little ones.
29. Bright Halloween
We use glow sticks every Halloween while trick or treating so this would be a welcomed treat in our house! The printable is super cute too!
30. Poppin’ Halloween
Popcorn is always a great treat! These printables that say “wishing you a pippin’ Halloween” and “just poppin’ by to wish you a happy Halloween” are super fun!
31. Eyeball game
Lastly, a mini eyeball spoon relay race game! A mom sent these home last year and they were a big hit! My kids took turns seeing who could run the farthest without dropping the eyeball all afternoon.
