Halloween Heroes - Fun costumes for kids

Who said Halloween can’t be educational? In Halloween Heroes, players must dare themselves to enter spooky places, like haunted houses and pirate ships, in order to take care of all the trash left over from Halloween festivities. And you can bet it’s a big mess to clean up.

Just think about all the trash we leave behind come October. Jack O’Lanterns are left to rot, plastic bats and spiders wind up all over the streets, and discarded costumes clutter up the garbage. Halloween Heroes challenges children ages 4-10 to take care of the mess we leave behind through composting and sustainable recycling. Players help witches sort trash, plunder haunted houses for recyclables, and compost different types of organic waste in order to plant new trees. Along the way, children learn the differences between plastics, metals, paper, and organic waste, as well as how recycling can lead to the creation of new products from old materials.

But it’s not all about recycling, either - kids can also have fun making their own costumes from recyclable material, like toilet paper and milk cartons. After dressing up their “Yogotars” with their spookiest outfits, players can dress up in their best Halloween costumes for all their friends to see.

Recycling still isn’t as widespread as it should be, and a part of the problem comes from a lack of existing educational materials on recycling, especially in third-world countries. Halloween Heroes seeks to solve the problem by making recycling fun and easy to understand.
