Re: Which Halloween activity is your favorite?
Well, I'm from a very small village of less than 1,000 people. Halloweening is still BIG around here! It is not unusual to have upwards of 200 trick or treaters. Some years I have hung a homemade BIG, black SPIDER (over 4 feet across) with beady little eyes, in the pinacle of the house above the front door for the trick or treat event. "She" is complete with her own "spider sack" which of course is where the treats are found. When little kids come to the door "Charlotte" comes down really slow so as to not freighten them (although some toddlers won't even approach the house.) Big Kids sometimes find the spider free falling in front of them.
I enjoy seeing all the cool costumes (so I like a daytime event) and tell the trick or treaters when they are wearing a really awesome costume. I also reward polite kids with an extra treat when they remember to say "Thank you." It is amazing how quickly others coming up the walk remember to also say "Thank you!"
