As an alternative to the traditional Halloween parade and class parties, Lincoln Elementary School this year had an afternoon of educational, but fun, games and activities.

Kerri Lacy, Lincoln principal, said the event kept parents from having the expense of buying Halloween costumes or excluding children whose families don’t celebrate Halloween.

Some of the activities the children participated in included, painting, Halloween yoga, slime making, minute-to-win it games, a Midwest Energy cash grab, a visit from the Sternberg Museum, snacks, crafts, face painting offered by the FHSU cheerleaders and a dance game.
