bobbing for apples or pears (whatever you have in the fridge)
Have extra toilet paper? Do a mummy wrap with it (fastest wins)
Don’t know your age group, but you can do musical chairs
Pass the balloon…squish a balloon between two people (you will need even number or people or someone do it twice) and walk a chosen path carrying the balloon, then at end of path you have to break it by squishing it between them (good for all ages)
borrow some scarey movies and do a horror movie sleep over (all you will need is some pop corn and drinks then)
Whatever you choose, you will have fun
