Halloween is creeping up fast (how is it October already?!), and this year’s lineup of new toys and activities has all the fun and none of the fright. Whether you’re planning your family’s costume game, looking for screen-free play ideas, or just want to sprinkle a little spooky magic around the house, these new arrivals totally deliver.
Here are a few of my favorite Halloween finds to grab before they disappear into the night:
🕯️ PLAYMOBIL Día de los Muertos Set
PLAYMOBIL’s new Día de los Muertos playset is a tiny, beautiful way to introduce kids to this vibrant celebration of love, memory, and tradition. The bright orange cempasúchil flowers, colorful table setup, and thoughtful little accessories make it more than just a toy—it’s a story in a box. It’s the perfect blend of play and culture, and honestly? It looks super cute on a shelf, too.
👻 BIZYBOO Halloween Seek ’N’ Find Busy Bags
If you’ve got a little one who loves to fidget, squish, and explore, these BIZYBOO Halloween Busy Bags from Vango Toys are a must. Each soft, squishy bag hides 30 mini Halloween-themed treasures (think bats, ghosts, and candy corn) for kids to find—no mess, no cleanup, and 100% quiet-car-approved. Choose from Giggly Ghost, Friendly Frankenstein, or Playful Pumpkin. These are toddler gold.
🎃 The Stack-O-Lantern by Hey Buddy Hey Pal
This is one of those why didn’t we have this as kids? inventions. The Stack-O-Lantern lets you safely carve or decorate your pumpkins and stack them into spooky towers—no power tools, no glue, no chaos. Just snap, stack, and pop in the included LED tea lights for that glowing Halloween porch perfection. Ours survived a rainy night, and the lights still looked amazing.
🕵️♀️ Costume Party Detective by UltraPRO
Game night just got a Halloween twist. In Costume Party Detective, everyone shows up in disguise—literally—and tries to unmask the others while keeping their own secret identity. It’s light strategy, a lot of laughs, and perfect for families or older kids who love mystery games. Bonus: the meeple figurines in costume are ridiculously cute.
💀 Sticki Rolls Creepies by Sky Castle
Okay, these are adorable. The Sticki Rolls Creepies are wearable sticker bracelets that combine “creepy” and “cute” in the best possible way. Each capsule is packed with bold Halloween character art and collectible accessories your kids (and, let’s be real, you) will want to wear all October long. Great for classroom treats or non-candy Halloween goodies!
This year, skip the sugar crash and treat your little monsters to toys that spark imagination and keep the fun going long after the candy’s gone. 🧡
