Halloween is a lot for some kids

Beacon helps parents plan a Halloween that works for their child, from costumes that feel okay to wear to a trick-or-treat plan with a way out.

What would Beacon say?

"My son loves Halloween but melts down at the costume and the crowds. How can we make trick-or-treating work this year?"

Common Questions

How can I use Halloween words with my child?
Pick one letter a day and name the pictures together, then trace the words on a sheet made from that letter. Younger children can hunt for the pictures around the house or point to them as you say each word. Older children can sort the words by first sound or write a Halloween story with three words from the list.
Is this list good for children who are not reading yet?
Yes. Every word has a picture, so a child can name it before they can read it, and the picture word cards let you play matching and naming games. The tracing sheets add the written word once a child is ready.
Are the Halloween pictures scary?
No. The pictures are drawn for young children: the monster, mummy, zombie and werewolf are friendly, smiling costumes and characters, and nothing is gory. That keeps the list usable for children who find Halloween frightening.
Can I print the Halloween word list?
Yes. The ABC picture chart puts one Halloween picture on every letter on a single page, and the picture word cards print every word on this page as cut-apart cards. Both are free PDFs in color and black and white, and each letter's tracing sheet is made in the free worksheet maker.
What Halloween words start with X?
Halloween words that start with X include x-ray, xylophone and X marks the spot. Each one has a picture in the X section of this list, and the section's tracing sheet prints them dotted and ready to trace.
What Halloween words start with Z?
Halloween words that start with Z include zombie, zebra and zigzag. Each one has a picture in the Z section of this list, and the section's tracing sheet prints them dotted and ready to trace.
