Trick or treaters were funny tonight

How sweet is that .We were away in our caravan and the kids came around the site trick or treating it was great fun ,they all dressed up.It was the same last year so we always go out and buy plenty of sweets to give to them.

I bet that was funny i only had 3 trick or treater the boys that live down the street an they give me a trick my daughters had four of thier friends spend the nite so when the boys came to get some treats an saw the girls they stayed sitting on my porch with the girls talking an I had to tell them around 10 oclock I am shutting the door an girls are comming in so you boys need to go home they think the girls like them

LOL we had a kid that couldn't have been more than 4 break out into a happy dance at the sight of candy-it was hilarious.cute as a button too.

My husband and I don't have trick or treaters down our road, but we went to a friend's house who has trick or treater's every year. Our friend, who was passing out the candy, gave tips to the children on how to get more candy! lol!

When it was quite a new thing here in England, my father-in-law answered the door to some children who asked "Trick or treat?" He had no idea what was going on and, eventually said "A treat please". After a few minutes they gave up & left. When he went back & told my mother-in-law, she explained that HE was supposed to give THEM the treat. My mum's neighbour had the front of his house "egged" when he didnt answer the door... he wasn't even home at the time.

i've never done that,i know that's the idea of trick or treat,but that's really cruel,those poor kids,,i would have found it funny aswell

You don't ask for tricks here, the children have no idea what you are talking about. Most of them don't even know how the holiday originated or why they dress up in costumes. All they know is that they're going out house to house, holding out their bags and getting candy dropped into it. I make comments to visitors when I can but it's the rare child who appears receptive or who asks questions.

Oh that's great. I never have heard of anyone doing this other than taking them inside to see the haunted house. Maybe I'll try that next year. Thanks for the idea. =]
