Matt doesn't like Halloween and I haven't done the decorating thing in years, partly cause Matt doesn't like it but mainly cause since the triplets were born I just don't have time; most of my decorations are more towards teh harvest theme anyway. The school/church the kids go to also does a harvest party, but I have taken the kids trick or treating, only in neighborhoods we are familiar with. I will do the harvest party for the next couple of years, while the little kids are still little, cause the weather here is so iffy and colds are not much fun when they come in fours. It's a personal preference, but you can do the Halloween thing and still teach your kids the things that are not so okay and just help them understand the difference -- Halloween is for kiddies, grown ups that are "in" to the day are generally creepy. I'm into the decorations and stuff for the kids, but not a fan of the gouls and goblins and undead.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
