HALLOWEEN MATHS!

Halloween, celebrated every year on the 31st of October, is packed with spooky costumes, glowing pumpkins, and plenty of treats. But did you know there’s a lot of maths hiding within all the fun? Carving pumpkins uses symmetry and shape recognition, while trick-or-treating involves counting sweets, comparing collections and maybe even a little bartering with friends!

If you’re looking to sneak some learning into the Halloween excitement, our Halloween themed maths worksheets are the perfect fit. With activities featuring ghosts, bats, pumpkins and spiders, students can enjoy a frightfully fun challenge while strengthening key skills.

What is the Maths behind the date of Halloween?

The date of Halloween has its own numerical twist! It falls on the 31st day of the 10th month every year. The number 31 is a prime number, and if you reverse its digits, you get 13 — another prime number that’s famously considered spooky or unlucky!

Here’s another fun trick — if you add 31 + 10, you get 41, which is also prime. It’s like the date is quietly playing along with the Halloween theme, adding a little number-based mystery into the celebration.

Why not use these fun facts to introduce prime numbers in class? It’s a great way to blend seasonal excitement with meaningful learning.

Halloween in Numbers!

Halloween offers a fantastic opportunity to explore real-life statistics. In the United States alone, surveys show that over 175 million people take part in Halloween festivities each year — that’s a huge number of sweets being traded! Students can compare quantities, calculate totals, and even investigate data trends around spending, costumes, or pumpkin sales.

Looking at Halloween through numbers helps children see that maths is everywhere — even in the spookiest of places!
