This Don’t Eat Pete game is an easy party game for kids that requires almost no preparation! Gather some candy and download the free printable and you are ready for a fun time.
Were you that child, who would tally up each type of candy that you received on Halloween night? I sure did, as I like to see how many chocolate bars, gum, bags of chips and more, that I received. I also had a paper proof of what I had currently in stock, my family members ask for a trade, or a Halloween tax for taking me out, and from stealing my candy, but my numbers never did match up?
This game is a fun guessing game and can help children in describing what the monsters look like, too. It doesn’t have to be placed with candy, as you could use objects also. Let the child decide how many pieces go on each monster, and hopeful you can win a few extra pieces, as you play along with them.
If you want a no candy option, you could also have them describe what the monster might have, rather than just randomly pointing and guessing. Lego pieces, coins, paper, anything works!
