My kuds will never go T&T as 31st Oct will always be Zaara's Birthday and I prefer spending it with Family. I also dont like the idea of kids going to strangers houses asking for lollies!

Today we had sooooo many kids coming to our door...I had bought a few packs of stuff and there was choc and lollies left over from Z's Birthday lootbags etc but we are completely cleaned out!! I gave away exp chocs as thats all I had and some older rude kids kept coming back....I told them to go away! Then there wer amny with guardians with them which was fine....and they were asked to say thank you after....and then there were little ones with out any one....Hmmmm....I wasnt soo happy and asked where the grown up was? they informed me "at home".

As it was Z's birthday there was B/Day decor in the house and some kids nearly came thry the door and asked if we were having a party?? I was shocked, what if I was a sicko? Ooohhhh I would hate to think! I might adopt the no halloween policy next year!

Ive been watching the Crime Investigation channel with all the scary stuff on, about the real story of Amityville etc. Am waiting on Halloween to start on TV2.

Not that keen on kids comg to door asking for lollies, but then again I also hate it when unsupervised kids come selling door to door raffles.chocolate etc, I feel its a bit of a violation of my privacy, coming up my driveway uninvited. No one tends to come here anyhow.

Last year we went to a HUGE kids halloween party held in a barn by a friend who is American, it was really cool, and she was raising funds for WSPA as well. It was really cool the kids loved it, she had all the cool decortaions. Would prefer something like that as opposed to trawling the streets looking for lollies.

I'm not unopposed to the "idea" of halloween, though, as I feel as with everything, good, bad and otherwise, it depends on what YOU teach them about stuff.
