We trick or treat on the 31st. Usually 6-9 or ?(whenever kids stop coming). Then we go to a big tent at a local church where they have free cotton candy, ice cream and tons of games, jupiter jump and of course more candy. My oldest is to big for it now, but my 10 year old takes some friends and has a ball. My sons school also has a Halloween party on the 31st during school for a couple of hours and they wear costumes and parade through the school so everyone can see them. Us parents take snacks and treats and chaperone. Our whole family has gone to a Halloween costume party a friend of mine has the past 3 years, she had to cancel this year. It is a great time for us adults to act like kids. They even decorate their back yard like a haunted trail and pull the kids around through it in a hay ride, The older kids and some adults are participants in scaring the kids on the trail. I am going to miss that this year. |
