Play Freeze Dance with the music or play instruments to the beat!

Invite the students to move to the beat - dance, twist, hop, turn, sway.

Teachers starts the music. When the teacher hits pause, all FREEZE.
Some teachers play this as an elimination - if you're moving after the music stops, you sit down.
A fun variant is to have the students freeze and make a pose. You might make a pose like a pumpkin, a cat or a skeleton.

You could invite students to choose instruments and play to the beat along with the music.

Sing and move to "Halloween Looby Loo".

On the part with the "oo" pretend you're stirring up a brew.

Do all the other movements that the kids do.

Create movement to go with the poem:
Lines 1, 2, 4: hold a bowl (or put candy in a bowl)
Line 3: eat the candy

Now choose 2 instruments.
Play one on lines 1, 2, 4 (sticks) and the other one on line 3 (shaker).

Substitute "candies" for other treats your students like to eat (example: Kit Kat in the bowl, Apples in the bowl, etc.)

Show high and low sounds in the song.

Do as many of the interactive activities as you like.

Optional: Trace and color the notes for Pumpkin Fat

Form a circle and choose one student to go into the middle of the circle. Have the students in the circle face away from the child in the middle. They pat the beat as they sing. At the end of the song, they clap the words “just like that.” All the students in the circle jump around so they are facing the child in the middle. They make the scariest faces that they can. The student in the middle (or the teacher) chooses the scariest face to be the next child in the middle. You could have more than one student in the middle to speed up the game.

Learn the game for "Costume Fun".

Choose one student to be the actor. Have the class sing the song and then guess what the student “is.” That student might choose to be an animal or may act something out – bunny, gorilla, piano player, baseball player, etc.
Sing to the class, asking them what the student is. For example, “What is Sarah?” (s m s m)
Individual students could sing their answer back to you. “Sarah is a bunny.” (ss ml s m)
