Instructions for this DIY Halloween Game:

Many days (or weeks) before your carnival draw out the shape of a ghost on your plywood and paint your plywood with black and white paint.

After the paint drys, have an adult attach the medium-sized clothespins to the board.

Game Setup:

A few days before your event, have some volunteers blow up balloons and store in oversized garbage sacks.

Before your carnival, decide where you will set up your game and secure it using bungee cords if placed outside leaning on a tree (see photo above)

Set up your different "stand behind" lines for different-age children.

How to Play the BOO-Loon Pop Carnival Game:

Players are given 3 Bean Bags for a chance to throw a beanbag and pop a balloon (or more) to win a top prize.

0 balloons popped = a consolation prize
1 balloon popped = a medium prize
2 or more balloons popped = a top prize

Please test this game with a few dozen throws to ensure it is not too easy or hard! Generally, you want 1 in 10 kids to win a top prize. So... when giving three chances for each player, that is 30 bean bag tosses to pop a balloon! If the game is too easy, require that they pop two balloons instead of just 1 to win a top prize!

Kids line up in droves to play this fun, alternative dart balloon game!
