Halloween Story Sack - Little Whispers

Spooky season is creeping closer, and we’re here forĀ friendly frights—think cosy costumes, giggly ghosts and imaginative play that won’t keep anyone up at night. If you love Lanka Kade’s beautiful, fair-trade wooden toys, our Halloween bundles make it super easy to set up screen-free fun at home, nursery or the classroom.

Why Lanka Kade for Halloween?

  • Open-ended play: mix figures to tell endless stories—no batteries, just imagination.

  • Heirloom quality: chunky, hand-crafted wood that lasts year after year.

  • Ethically made: fair-trade production and sustainably sourced wood.

  • Age-flexible: perfect for small-world setups with toddlers, and for big-kid storytelling too.


1) Lanka Kade Mythical Bundle šŸ“ššŸ‘»

What’s inside:

  • A friendly ghost, witch, pumpkin, black cat, skeleton, vampire, wizard and mummy.Ā  Lanka Kade figure set

  • A seasonal picture book (or pick any favourite)

  • A simple felt ā€œstory matā€ (or a tea towel—no perfection needed!)

Set-up: Lay out the mat, place the figures as ā€œcharactersā€, and retell the book with your child moving the pieces.
Why it works: Kids remember stories better when their hands are busy—it boosts language, confidence and calm.

Add-on idea: Pair with a not-too-spooky Tonie for a screen-free wind-down after trick-or-treating.


2) Trick-or-Treat Playset Bundle šŸ¬šŸ§™

What’s inside (suggested):

  • 5–8 Lanka Kade Halloween-themed figures (witch, bat, skeleton, pumpkin, cat, vampire—choose your favourites)

  • A small drawstring ā€œtreat bagā€

  • A cardboard door/house backdrop (cut a door shape into a cereal box and paint it!)

Play prompts:

  • ā€œKnock knock! Who opens the door?ā€

  • ā€œWhat’s in your treat bag today?ā€

  • ā€œCan you sort the treats by colour/shape?ā€

Learning perks: turn-taking, manners practice, sorting and counting—sneaky maths win.


3) Pumpkin Party Play Tray šŸŽƒāœØ

What’s inside (suggested):

  • A shallow tray with orange rice/pasta (or fabric if you’d rather skip loose parts)

  • Lanka Kade pumpkins + autumn animals

  • Mini scoops, cupcake cases, and a wooden spoon

Play prompts:

  • ā€œCan you fill three cases for the pumpkin party?ā€

  • ā€œHide the cat—can I find it?ā€

  • ā€œMake a pumpkin parade!ā€

Top tip: Keep the tray out all week and refresh it daily with one new figure—instant novelty.


4) Kind (Not Frightening) Costume Corner šŸ¦‡šŸ’›

What’s inside (suggested):

  • Cape/hat from the dressing-up box

  • Two or three ā€œcompanionā€ figures (witch, cat, bat)

  • A mirror + simple face stickers

Play prompts:

  • ā€œYour bat is shy—what would make it brave?ā€

  • ā€œThe witch lost her hat—who can help?ā€

  • ā€œCreate a magic kindness spell!ā€ (three nice actions to try today)

Why we love it: Builds empathy and social storytelling without the jump-scares.

  3. Add one simple extra (book, bag, tray, cape).

  4. Photograph on a light background with the bundle name card.

  5. List as a bundle product (suggested options: ā€œStandardā€ 4-piece / ā€œDeluxeā€ 8-piece).

  6. Add a short video/GIF of hands moving the figures—conversion booster!


FAQs

Are the figures compatible with other brands?
Yes—Lanka Kade works brilliantly with play silks, blocks, train sets and dollhouses.

Will Halloween figures get used after October?
Absolutely. Kids repurpose the ā€œcatā€ as a pet, the ā€œbatā€ as a night animal, the ā€œwitchā€ as a friendly traveller—open-ended for the win.
