In this special Halloween-themed episode of Counselor Chat, we’re diving into how we can use our leftover Halloween candy in our school counseling program!
In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
- Candy Introductions – Use M&Ms or Skittles as a fun icebreaker. Each color represents a different question for students to answer, encouraging them to share something about themselves.
- Candy Tower Challenge – Build towers with mini marshmallows and toothpicks. Great for discussing teamwork, growth mindset, and creative problem-solving skills.
- Candy Bar Connection – Match students with candy bars like Snickers and Twix that represent different personality traits, helping them explore their strengths and similarities with others.
- Guess the Candy Flavor – Blindfolded students rely on their team to describe candy flavors without saying the names, building trust and honing communication skills.
- Candy Trivia Relay – Set up a trivia relay for some friendly competition! Students race to answer questions on topics you’re covering and win candy prizes for correct answers.
- Yes or No Candy Game – Encourage kids to converse and win candy by getting their partners to say “yes” in conversation, improving social skills and interaction.
- Candy Sort Challenge – A sorting game with candy corn and M&Ms using only straws. This activity promotes teamwork, planning, and focus.
