Looking for fun and easy candy corn activities to enjoy this Halloween season? You’re in the right place!
Candy corn is such a cool theme for learning fun. I’ve gathered some of our favorite ways to enjoy this sweet treat. You’ll find kids crafts and print-and-go ways to have a blast with this seasonal favorite.
I also have some STEM ideas and other hands-on activities to make your candy corn fun rock.
Candy Corn = A Bunch of Learning Fun!
I have a confession to make: I love candy corn. And I guess I’m in the minority here! I’ve had many people (including a few of my boys) tell me it’s disgusting.
I’ve found that using candy corn-themed activities is a fun way for all to enjoy this Halloween treat. My boys and I have had a blast with all kinds of printables and hands-on projects featuring candy corn. I love how it gives us an extra way to celebrate the season together.
I especially love using these kinds of activities in the days leading up to Halloween. My boys get so excited. And it’s nice to have simple, creative ways to channel that energy and help them get ready.
I recently finished my new Candy Corn Fun Pack (just in time for National Candy Corn Day on October 30!). I remembered these awesome activities and had to share them with you.
