Halloween, A Spooky Fun Time of the Year!
We really enjoy Halloween in our household. The dressing up in costumes, the trick-or-treating, the passing out candy, making all sorts of different kinds of treats. It's just an all around fun time of year!
Halloween is also know as All Hallows' Eve, it is a holiday observed yearly around the world on October 31st. Different festive activities include trick-or-treating, costume parties, carving pumpkins into jack-o-lanterns, telling scary stories, etc. The word Halloween was first used in the 16th Century which represented a Scottish variant of the fuller All-Hallows-Even (evening) which is the night before All Hallows' Day.
Trick-or-treating is customary celebration on Halloween. Children dress up in costumes and go from house to house asking for candy. Halloween costumes are traditionally modeled after supernatural figures ex., monsters, ghosts, skeletons, etc. Some dress up as ninjas and princesses. The first mass-produced Halloween costumes first appeared in stores in the 1930's when trick-or-treating became popular in the United States.
We love decorating in our household for Halloween!
