Halloween bike decoration ideas for kids

The time for Halloween celebrations is creeping up on us. At Frog, we don’t just dress up ourselves, we dress up our bikes too! Because… what better way to go trick or treating than on your bike!! 

We’ve put together some fa-boo-lous ideas of how you can include your bike in this year’s Halloween costume, from ghastly ghouls to scary skeletons - we have the perfect Halloween bike decorations for kids! 

Here’s how to get into the spooky spirit: How to decorate a bike for Halloween:

Stickers are a fun and inexpensive way to decorate your bike. We added ghosts, skeletons, eyeballs and pumpkins all over the frame of the bike. And, by using glue dots to secure the stickers, they were easy to peel off without damaging the paintwork, and they can be reused, which makes them the perfect DIY Halloween crafts! 

There are so many great Halloween-themed tinsels available now, which makes it a nice, straightforward and very effective way to wrap up the bike frame in spooktacular style! We’ve used a ghost-themed version for the green bike and a pumpkin-themed version for the black bike for our Trick-or-Treat bike ideas! You could also use Halloween printed tape, too! Make sure to secure the ends properly so that they don’t flap around as you go trick-or-treating on bikes.  

We found a frightfully fun use for Halloween head boppers. We tied one to the front of the bike onto the handlebars so that the bike looks alive with its own crazy Halloween personality! And, it’s another inexpensive accessory too, making them fright-tastic Halloween crafts for kids!

We used plastic spiders, which we dotted on different parts of the bike frame using glue dots to make our bikes look incredibly creepy-crawly! And, once removed from the bike, they can be used time and time again for other crafts.

We’ve also wrapped glow stick bracelets around parts of the bike’s frame and on the top of the handlebars so that when it’s dark, our bike will hauntingly glow in the night!
