Halloween is celebrated in the USA with jack o' lanterns (the carved pumpkins in this photo have candles in them at night to make those faces even spookier); trick or treaters in all kinds of costumes (children going door to door collecting candy); and sometimes VERY scary movies and decorations and pranks. Do you celebrate Halloween in South Africa, Peru, or wherever you are? If so, what do you do? If not, is there another time of year when people dress up in costume?  Here is a link to a collection of halloween ideas for preschoolers. What do you think of all of this as it might relate to young children?
