trick or treating
how old was your lo when you first took them out to trick or treat? my lo will be turning two 6 days after so I don't really see the point since he won't even know what's going on.
My son went to a halloween party at daycare at 1 and loved it! He was running around like a crazy with his "petzels!"haha he went again last year at 2 and lovedddd it..he actually went trick or treating tho so it was his first time. This year he will be 3 and my daughter going on one! Im so excited haha last year halloween put me in labor ;)
My ds was 13 months and he had a blast! We went with his cousins who were all older, but he was keeping up with them running from house to house. My dd was almost 6 months last year and went trick or treating only because we were taking ds out. She obviously didn't get any candy, but we dressed her up. This year she'll be 1 and 1/2 and we'll let her collect candy too.
Lo will be 11mths. I dont mind if he doesn't remember beside hes probably gonna fall asleep anyway!
But its memories that we all share as a family.
A lot of the neighbours kids are going as well and we are all getting together to go even tho not many people celebrate around here its still fun!
Ive made each and every one a costume( even the neighbours kids) and they are so pround of them!
I took my oldest for the first time when he was 10 months. He also went last year and will go this year. Last year he had a blast! Who cares if he isn't going to remember it years from now? I took pictures and I will show him those. I'm not going to not do things with my children on the chance they don't remember. What if they do remember? What if they remember never being able to do anything fun? That would suck. Anyways, my youngest will be 9 months for halloween and I will be taking him as well.
For Ds first Halloween he was only 3 weeks old and we lived in Michigan so I was not taking him out. My sister's friend crocheted a cacoon and hat that looked like a football and I wore a jersey and answered the door and handed out candy at home. We've went every year since then bc now we're in sc and its never really cold by Halloween. Plus now I have a 5 year old ss so we all go.together.
Dd 1 was 10 days old for her first Halloween. We basically brought her for the walk so that we could see the decorated houses. People tried to give us candy for her though.
Both girls walked around in costumes and collected treats when they were around 2. At that age , most of the treats were for us.
Last year my youngest was a few months shy of 2 yrs and she LOVED it! She was so interested in all the crazy decorations and i think had more fun than my 8 yr old.
We are taking our daughter for her first time this year and she will be almost 2 1/2.
I didn't see the point the years before but we have been talking about it with her and I think she will enjoy it and "get it" enough. If it was 5/6 months ago I probably still wouldn't have taken her. She has changed a lot in hose few months.
Halloween annoyance
I love literally everything about my town....except 1 thing. Trick or treating. Most of the time it's not even on the day of Halloween and the hours are so stupid. It's not even dark yet by the time the trick of treating is over. It's sooooooo annoying.
What time does trick or treating start where your at???????

Trick or treat smell my kids give me a drink.... 😂😂😂 I mean 🤷♀️🥴
