Let's see its Fall leaves Orchards Pumpkins Cider donuts hayrides. Haunted houses! Dressing up being anything you wanted for one night a year... Magic , scary factor, going thouse to house at night taking candy from strangers We usualy have police officers present, eating candy to you puke, my parents order a pizza we watch scary movies. Ancestors coming back to vist and say hi. Carving pumpkins gorgeous The warm glow of lit pumpkins and our parents driving us to the good neighborhoods Halloween displays and awesome candy. .. Parties costume contests. Seeing who can get the best candy....... Whats not to love. I admit it beats Xmas anytime! I admit it some people take it to extremes ruin it for everybody..... We use to pull pranks but the worst thing we did was soap windows. Fora joke once.... You don't go to houses that don't have lights on. Use protective clothing and always go in well it houses and groups. Common sense should be used. Doesn't have to be American holiday it can be a global holiday light new years eve. Have your own special twist on it. Best way to get idea of Halloween or any holiday is to type in Holidays name and got to websites..... Older kids can participate keeps trhem out of trouble.

Yes, you are right, Norwegian doesn't celebrate like Americans. But we do something. We are baking "boller" tonight and will eat them in front of the hearth tomorrow night, drinking hot chocolate and waiting for the trick and treaters to come :-) <strong>RennyBA</strong> Sound like a great way of celebrating - a great example of how it can be done in Norway too - thanks for sharing and Happy Halloween :-) I am planning tomorrow’s Halloween with my 11 years old daughter tonight.

I've always loved Halloween and have passed on those feelings to my children. Though it's not the same as it was when I was growing up....it has gotten much more commercialized. Still, I love seeing the kids all dressed up and excited. I'm ready for this year. I hope I get a lot of trick or treaters at my door. Happy Halloween Renny. <strong>RennyBA</strong> Glad you liked it and good to know you pass on your traditions in a good way for your children - I like that!
