It’s a good idea to print this Halloween memory game on card stock so that it’s more durable. Free printables like this are so much fun for young kids to practise memory skills with this simple activity.

This fun halloween game is perfect for kids of all ages at your next party. I like to laminate each of the printables so that they can be reused over and over again as an easy Halloween themed game.

When laminated, kids can use scissors to cut out the cards and then match each image with the word. These are perfect for parties or classroom units with a fall theme! 

They are great to use for sight word recognition and practising fine motor skills. Pair older children with younger kids and have them match pairs of cards together.

Fun ways to use printables:

• Create a Halloween activity book
• Print the activity sheets and laminate them so that they can be reused
• Use them as a great game at your next party or event
• Add printables to your holiday party games or busy bag

Before starting any printable craft, design or work book be sure to set yourself up for success with some of our favorite printable tools. This is our essential product list for making great printable projects!

We are always using printable downloads around here, whether it be for preschool programs, boredom busters for the school aged kiddos or pretty gift tags for a friend, printables are a staple in our home. So today I wanted to share some of our must haves for printable projects.

Your Printer:

The printer that you use to print out each printable sheet is of the utmost importance. Without a good printer your images may appear grainy, unfinished and low quality.

Selecting a good printer can be daunting but after lots of research and trial and error, I have the best at-home printer for the job!

This Canon Pixma Inkjet Printer is my favorite for printing out all of my printables, even the full color ones. Here’s why:

• Coming in at under $100, it’s a great value!
• The quality of the print job is just as good as the higher end models we’ve used.
• Ink for this Canon printer is easily refillable or purchased at your local Walmart.
• It is easy to set up and use wirelessly with your smart phone or computer.

The model that I’ve linked above is newer than my current printer but has the same great quality. I’ve had my Canon Pixma Inkjet printer for five years now and it’s still going strong!

Full Ink Cartridges:

The most important thing about printer ink is that you have some. It never fails that I go to print a project and I am out of ink or it has dried up from lack of use.

Be sure to keep a supply of ink on hand in both black and color. It’s also important to know the make and model of your printer so that you purchase the correct ink for your machine.

Tip: save the make and model of your printer OR the specific number on the ink cartridge to your phone so that you can easily look it up next time you need to purchase ink.

The Canon Pixma Inkjet Printer uses XL dual cartridges which I like because they last longer and don’t need to be replaced as often. Always order the XL cartridges if you are able, they will contain a larger volume of ink, making them last longer.

Paper Quality:

The paper quality required will depend on the type of project that you are creating. Determine what the purpose of your printable project is before selecting a paper to use.

• Multipurpose Printer Paper (20lb, 8.5×11) – great for printing worksheets and coloring pages. This basic paper is a great value and a box lasts years! You can also find a good deal on printer paper at Costco.
• Recycled Multipurpose Printer Paper (20lb, 8.5×11) – this paper is made out of 100% recycled products and is another great option.
• Premium White Cardstock (65lb, 8.5×11) – perfect for printing gift cards and art projects. This heavy weight paper is ideal for craft projects or printables that require more durability.

Laminator:

A thermal laminator is a great tool to have for printable projects! It allows you to preserve your printed sheet to use over and over again.

Laminating is especially great for preschool printables or templates! I love my trusty Scotch Thermal Laminator because it’s super easy to use and has been in my home for over ten years.

Scotch Thermal Laminator – this model is newer than the one that I have but uses the same two roller system for simple laminating.

Clear Thermal Laminating Sheets (9×11.5) – these are perfect for preserving printer paper and comptible with most laminators. These basic laminating sheets help protect and preserve your projects! You can also find Scotch brand sheets at Walmart.

More Recommendations:

There are a few more things that I like to have in my home office to make printing easy.

• Duotang folders are great for creating activity books. I have used them to create work books for nearly every subject. They help to make organizing printable packs easy!
• This rolling storage cart is awesome for keeping everything organized. You could use this sturdy metal one as an all-in-one printing station. Simply place the printer on top with the paper and supplies in the drawers below.
• A Fiskars paper cutter is a great tool for cutting and trimming printables. This is the one that I have had for years and surpisingly, the blade has lasted a long time without getting dull. They are easy to replace regardless.

Now that we are set with all of the best printable project tools, let’s get creative! Be sure to check out our giant Printable Library for more great resources!

Have you heard of “booing”?  It’s my favorite halloween tradition!  

You essentially doorbell ditch your neighbors with a basket of treats to help spread halloween cheer.  It’s so much fun and a great way to kick off the holiday season.

HOW THIS FUN ACTIVITY WORKS:

1. Start a new halloween tradition by first downloading and printing the PDF files.
2. Create a halloween gift with a few small treats. A fun way to do this is to go to dollar tree to make a simple gift basket.  It could be a boo bag, a boo bucket or even a boo box.  
3. Fill with sweet treats, halloween candy or homemade treats.  You’re going to want two of these fun treats to hand out.
4. Deliver a boo gift with a copy of the boo sheets to two neighbors.  We like to make it a surprise and try to deliver to the porch of the person without them seeing us.
5. The recipient then puts the sign in their front window or on the door and continues the Halloween boo game.

Last year we started on October 1st which was the perfect amount of time to get the boo chain reaction time to process before Halloween.  The entire neighborhood becomes a part of the fun!

• These stackable storage containers are awesome for keeping everything organized.

At home use:

These Halloween signs are also great for at home use.  My boys were born in October and we came home from the hospital on Halloween day. Sadly I could’t run up and down the stairs to hand out candy and I remember turning off all of the lights and creating a hand written note to tape on the door for anyone who might stop by.

Placing one of these printable trick or treat signs on the front porch with a halloween candy bowl would have been an easy way to navigate the situation.  I wish that I had this digital file back then.

We’ve had experiences where older kids would take the whole bowl rather than one piece of candy.  Putting this on the front step with a basket of candy might help prevent that in the future.  It’s a quick and easy, last minute welcome sign that can be printed on regular printer paper and laminated for durability.

Each printable sign can easily be downloaded by right clicking on the image and selecting “save”.  Or scroll to the bottom of the page and enter your email in the form to receive the downloadable PNG file. The free digital printable file is for personal use only.

How to Use Halloween Signs:

• Print the file using a printer with black and color ink.
• Paper size is standard us letter but can also be blown up bigger.
• Place each fun witch sign into page protectors to hang or into a photo frame to display.
• Display with a bowl full of pieces of candy.
