Entertain the little ones with these fun and spooky tunes.
It's official the best holiday of the year is almost here! Halloween is always extra special for the kiddos. Putting on a costume they love, carving pumpkins, and of course eating way too much Halloween candy are just a few of the things kids will remember forever. If you've already watched every Halloween movie you can think of and done all the Halloween crafts and activities you can handle, play some of these Halloween songs for kids and let them have a dance party. Better yet, play these songs in the car, use them as background music all season long for all the Halloween activities or set up a speaker on your porch for trick-or-treaters.
We've rounded up songs for every age from singalongs to educational songs to old classics even you'll know, we've got you covered. Whether you're a teacher trying to wrangle a whole slew of Halloween-obsessed kiddos or just a parent with a few little ones at home, this playlist is sure to be a crowdpleaser. Now, all that's left to do is cue them up on YouTube and watch your kids have a ball getting in the spirit of spooky season! The best part: no assembly, planning or clear up required for this fun seasonal activity. Happy Halloween!
