Make Your Own Halloween Hat at Home
What are your plans this Halloween?
If you’re an Au Pair living in Germany or Austria, Halloween is the perfect time to bring a bit of creativity, laughter, and cultural exchange into your host family’s home. Whether you’re new to the tradition or already love spooky fun, simple craft activities are a great way to bond with your host kids and share the festive spirit.
As an experienced Au Pair agency in Germany and Austria, we know how important it is for Au Pairs to have easy, meaningful ways to connect with their families — and that’s why we’ve created something special just for you!
This year, My Family Au Pair is giving you a free PDF file with 10 ready-to-cut Halloween hat designs — perfect for quick, mess-free fun with your host children. These printable hats are great for small Halloween parties, school crafts, or a cozy afternoon indoors.

- And a few minutes of creative fun.
Why Au Pairs Love This Activity
As an Au Pair, moments like these help you build memories and a stronger connection with your host family. Making Halloween hats together encourages teamwork, creativity, and language learning — while giving the kids a chance to express themselves.
These printable hats are also a great way to introduce your culture or learn more about how families in Germany and Austria celebrate Halloween. Even if trick-or-treating isn’t big in your neighborhood, you can still enjoy the spirit of the season with crafts, costumes, and laughter at home.
Don’t forget to share your creations! Tag us on Instagram and Facebook. We’d love to see how your hats turn out.
Happy Halloween from My Family Au Pair! 🎃✨
