Halloween this year will of course be different, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t celebrate, especially if you have little ones. This is the time to show them the spooky magic of Halloween by having fun at home!
This year Halloween falls on a Saturday, so you’ll have even more time to enjoy a day of fun-packed activities.
Decorate your home
Nothing will get you in the Halloween spirit more than decorating your home. You can even re-use last year’s decorations or create your own by having a fun Halloween arts and crafts session.
Dress up!
You can create your own costume, dress up, have fun, even paint each other’s faces! Just because you’re at home doesn’t mean you can’t wear fun and spooky fancy dress costumes.
Carve those pumpkins

We want everyone to have fun this Halloween, but keep in mind COVID-19 cases are dangerously high in Knowsley. Please, remember to act responsibly and be respectful, especially with the most vulnerable neighbours in our community. Think about others, enjoy this Halloween at home and remember not to mix households. We’re all in this together, let’s think about each other.
