Halloween is every kids dreams, & a lot of parents worst nightmare. First you have to get the costume, then the candy, figure out how to keep them safe & warm, then worry about them all night, & pay for the dentists bills later. We live in the country, so houses are pretty far apart. My church does what we call a “trunk or treat”. Everyone comes & parks their cars in the parking lot & opens up their trunks, where they keep the candy. Then all of the kids go around to each car & go “trunk or treating”. It’s great because they get aren’t out in the cold for too long, don’t get too tired, you know everyone there & can keep an eye on them, but they still get to see their friends & wear their costumes, & get candy! Works for me!

My church does that, too! This will be our first year to participate.

What a cool idea! We’ve been struggling with Halloween this year. I’m still not sure what will do, since we’re new to the area.

My old church did that too. It was a lot of fun.

I love this idea! Even living in a subdivision, the kids often get too tired by the time we make the rounds from house to house.

It’s a great idea, my kids love it, only problem is it’s like trick or treating on steroids, the kids come back with 25 pounds of candy in under 10 minutes. A lot of sugar . . .
