Halloween Activities for Kids
We love Halloween. The season brings so many fun opportunities. We love the season for creating and bringing the imaginary to life.
Many of our kids live for Halloween. They wait all year for the season. But, dressing up is only one highlight.
A few years ago, we thought up a way to make Halloween even more exciting! We collected a bunch of Halloween activities for kids. Then, we created a spellbook for our kids.
What we created was pure magic!
Magical Mixology: A Kids Potionology – A Spell book of Halloween Activities for Kids
This Halloween craft for kids printable spell book is for the whole family! There are 12 family fun Halloween spells in the book.
The spellbook contains:
- 4 easy Halloween treat recipes
- 4 Halloween science experiments
- 4 easy Halloween crafts for kids
Each includes its own bewitching spell to chant as we create, craft, and cook up some Halloween fun!
The artwork in Magical Mixology: A Kid’s Potionology is stunning. Each picture is a hand-painted treasure. Making this spellbook not only fun, but also a beautiful, spooky decoration!

Halloween Decor Ideas
There are many ways you can style this spell book for a unique piece of Halloween decor. Each of us display Magical Mixology: A Kid’s Potionology differently at our houses to best match our Halloween decorations. Let’s look at some of the options for displaying this spell book.
DIY Spell Book Decor
This Halloween craft for kids printable can be added to your collection of diy spell books and wands, for the perfect witchy display. You can find a small book to add these pages to or turn it into its own book.
We have a guide for binding this spellbook as a faux leather book. This binding technique is a great craft for any group. It would make for a great Halloween for kids, although it does take a while to dry. We wouldn’t recommend this style for class parties or quick parties.

3D Printed Spell Book Cover
This year, we created a new way to display our spell book for kids. We created a 3D-printed cover. You can download the file for free. These turned out truly awesome.
The best part is: it really takes your book to a new level. You can print it and tie the book in. Then, leave the cover as is, or you can give it a leather effect by using Mod Podge and tissue paper. Similar to the process of the DIY Spell books mentioned above.

Leather Bound Book
Another of our favorite ways to display Magical Mixology: A Kid’s Potionology is by turning it into a real book! You can grab a small leather-bound journal or notebook with empty pages and glue the spell book printable pages right inside.
Leather Journal Notebook
This method is so simple, but it looks amazing when it’s done. You can use a glue stick or Mod Podge to attach each page securely, then let it dry completely. The leather cover makes the book feel spooky and magical, perfect for little potion makers!
We love this option because it’s quick and easy. It doesn’t need extra supplies, and you end up with a book you can enjoy year after year. Plus, it doubles as a piece of Halloween decor when displayed on a shelf, coffee table, or next to your potion ingredients.
Recipe Card Holder
Another way to display your Magical Mixology: A Kid’s Potionology is with a recipe card holder.
You can choose whichever page you are currently focusing on or whichever best matches your decor. With the artwork being so beautiful, it will surely make your Halloween decor so much better!
Bundled Up
An additional way to use this Halloween spellbook is to display it as a stack of printed cards and tie it with some twine or ribbon.
Then, you can place your little magical package anywhere in your decor. The cover is the perfect decoration to add a bit of spook to your decor.
We love to display our Magical Mixology: A Kid’s Potionology on our Halloween apothecary tables. These are full of potions, ingredients, and jars of creatures.
