Halloween Questions for Kids: 30–60-Second Voice Prompts (Before, During, After)
Halloween moves fast—costume reveals, doorstep laughs, candy trades. If you want to capture the feel of it (without filming everything), these 30–60-second voice prompts help you save the moment in leaf and replay it later. Below are Halloween questions for kids they’ll enjoy responding to—organized for before, during, and after trick-or-treat. Start by capturing one or two tonight and you’ll have a small time capsule to revisit next October.
