What to Put in Halloween Gift Bags: Sweet Surprises for the Whole Family

Aug 02, 2025

Halloween isn’t just about trick-or-treating — it’s also the perfect chance to show some love with a curated gift bag full of spooky (and sweet!) surprises. Whether you’re planning party favors, treats for cousins, or a thoughtful doorstep drop-off, we’ve got ideas that are both festive and family-friendly.

Ready to make your Halloween gift bags unforgettable? Here’s what to include:

 

🍭 1. Sweet (but Not Too Sticky) Treats

Think beyond candy bars. Try small bags of gummies, marshmallow ghosts, chocolate eyeballs, or allergy-friendly snacks like fruit strips. Bonus points for anything pumpkin-shaped or individually wrapped in Halloween colors.

📚 2. Halloween-Themed Goodies for Kids

Mini coloring books, spooky stickers, glow-in-the-dark tattoos, or small puzzles are always a hit with the little ones. They add fun to the evening without the sugar crash.

 

🧸 3. A Soft Toy or Plushie

Tiny stuffed pumpkins, friendly ghosts, or cute plush bats can bring Halloween magic to life. They're perfect for toddlers who can’t quite dive into the candy yet.

 

👕 4. A Matching Halloween Tee for the Whole Family

Here’s the surprise they’ll never expect but always love — a cozy, themed family t-shirt set!
From our adorable “Spooky Mama + Spooky Dude” combo to the cheeky “One Happy Dada” set, adding one of these to your gift bag instantly turns a treat into a memory.

🎁 Imagine handing over a bag with matching tees for mom, dad, and baby — it’s an Instagram moment waiting to happen!

🕯 5. DIY Decor

Include a few paper bats, mini pumpkins, or a small candle (battery-powered for safety) so the whole family can add a spooky touch to their home.

 

🖍 6. A Personalized Note

Whether it’s “Have a fa-boo-lous night!” or “You're spook-tacular!” — a handwritten message makes the gift feel extra thoughtful. Kids especially love finding their names in the card!

 

🧡 Final Tip: Keep It Cozy

A Halloween gift bag doesn’t have to be fancy or expensive. What matters most is that it brings comfort, connection, and a smile. Adding something wearable — like our cozy baby bodysuits or unisex tees — makes it extra special and long-lasting.

So this year, surprise your loved ones with more than just candy. Give them memories they can wear (and match!) all spooky season long.
