Celebrate Halloween with a tradtional Irish game. Keep kids guessing by playing this game, inspired by the Halloween card games of the Irish. Kids go on like this until everyone has caught the ball once. The player who was caught becomes It. Then instruct each player to watch carefully as you slip and slide the halves around the table into new positions. It has 30 seconds (allow more for younger players) to feel around to find and tag someone, who then becomes It. They will find the task impossible. Your friend will fear more than just losing, especially if there's candy on the line! Slip a piece of candy or a small toy under one of three halved walnut shells. Employees swim against the current, staying in place within these small pools. Wave your fingers dramatically over the surface of the table in order to collect the salt into a small pile.

Tuck the unknotted end in the same position, and this time when you say the magic work and snap your hand, release the knotted end while keeping the unknotted end secure between your fingers. But others say that the building already had that name back when Silicon Graphics owned it. A correct guess wins the guesser the prize underneath the walnut half; an incorrect guess moves the guesser to the back of the line. If a child rescues the maiden and makes it back to the box, he or she wins a prize. If you're creating identical maps for all the kids, photocopy the map before dipping the paper in the tea, and bury or hide a box filled with at least one treasure per child. Nevertheless, Captain Kidd got the last laugh: The King found little of the pirate's loot, and three centuries later, treasure hunters around the world are still searching for it.

If you're willing to draw a new map for each child, do it after the tea-dipped paper has dried, what is billiards and bury or hide each child's treasure separately. Glue or staple a large circle of felt to a piece of cardboard and use a permanent marker to draw point zones that get higher closer to the bull's-eye. Hint: Use hard-boiled eggs just in case! Shortly before kids are gathered, use a cotton swab dipped in lemon juice and, on different scraps of paper, write the words, "Believe it," "Never!," or "It is so." Allow each child to ask a yes or no question about his or her future, then have each choose one of the pieces of paper. Although kids go over the moon for an orb that glows in the dark, white or colorful balls are OK, too. Keep going until kids have three balls going at once. Tell the kids that you can command a wand to do whatever you tell it to. If an employee suffers an injury or feels ill while at work, he or she can make an appointment with a doctor at the Googleplex. The warmth from the bulb will make the answer slowly appear.

Your kids will be sure to giggle with our next game. Arrange the kids in a circle and start with one soft, plastic ball. Arrange kids in a circle around a cauldron. Consider high tree branches (no climbing; tell the kids they have to shake the trees), the mailbox, sandbox, underneath overturned buckets, etc. The child with the most pumpkins wins. Have one child stand across the floor or yard, at least ten feet from the rest of the group. It counts to ten. But some say his heart was greedy, and word got back to England that he was pirating England's ships, too. Angered by the pirate's betrayal, the King of England demanded Captain Kidd's head -- and with it, Kidd's ill-gotten stash. Captain Kidd was a famous pirate that your swashbucklers are sure to love. Captain Kidd attacked many a pirate ship, most from France, England's enemy at the time, and he earned a load of loot. In our next section, we'll show you how to play the Captain Kidd games.
