apple bobbing

Autumn water game

Apple bobbing is a party game, traditional at Halloween, in which players try to grab apples floating in a tub of water using only their teeth—no hands allowed.

The game is also called bobbing for apples: We set up apple bobbing for the kids at the harvest festival.
