The costume has been laid out on the bed for a week, and every morning your little one asks, “Is it Halloween yet?” Here are five simple ways to turn that excitement into time together, using what's free on this site.

Print the activity book and do a page or two after dinner
Milo & Nami: A Party Full of Discoveries has 10 pages that tell a short story. Do a page or two after dinner and let your child pick the colors. By Halloween night, the party's ready, and so is their book.
Coloring pages -
Play “Which one doesn't belong?” side by side
Before your child taps a card, ask what the other three have in common. Candy, pumpkins, things that fly: there's no wrong answer, only something new to talk about.

Make Cauldron memory a family game
Take turns and say the name of each card out loud as it flips. Waiting for your turn is part of the fun, and shouting “bat!” together is the best part.

Take Nami's spell off the screen
After a round, try the spell at home: “Find something orange!” Pumpkins, a sweater, a carrot in the fridge. The game keeps going in the real world.

Watch the Frankenstein episode and talk about it
In Discovering Frankenstein's Kind Heart, Milo and Nami meet someone who looks scary at first. When it ends, ask your child what they noticed. Children learn more from characters when a grown-up talks with them about what they saw.

The same fun, in a box for your table
If your child loved shouting “bat!”, our first box, The Adventures of Milo & Nami, has 186 picture cards just like that, a game board, and a guide that tells you what to say next. It's an easy way to spend 10 minutes at the table, playing side by side. The first boxes are in production right now.
