Download the Free Countdown To Halloween Calendar Printable here! Print the template onto white cardstock, then cut out the individual squares along the dotted lines using scissors. Set the cut squares aside. Note that there are extra Halloween-themed cartoon squares in addition to the numbers so that you may create extra "free" space boxes. Mixing one or more of these cartoon squares alongside the numbers will make the finished shape of the calendar even on all sides since there are only 31 days in October.
Fill the assembled boxes with Kid's Combo Assorted Candy. Close up the boxes.
Lay out the boxes in a colorful pattern and shape, then stick them together with Clear Glue Dots to create one connected unit that can be easily lifted and moved. Make sure that all of the tops are facing up so you can access the candy inside!
Use more Clear Glue Dots to attach the Halloween numbers you cut out in Step 1 to the tops of the boxes. You may choose to do them in order on the boxes, or scatter them randomly like we did for a fun visual hunt come countdown time.
Place the countdown calendar in the center of your buffet, dining room table, or coffee table along with other Halloween decor like a festive runner, lanterns, candles, appetizer plates, and napkins. The candy-filled countdown calendar is sure to provide sweet interactive fun all October long!
