My kids love dressing up and trick-or-treating but that’s not happening this year. I had a thought this morning:
HELL-O-WEEN
I think we’ll just walk the neighborhood, eating candy, socially distancing, and saying “HELL-O” to friends and neighbors doing the same. Thoughts, Spokane? Stay safe
ed. I delineated the “hell” to make it edgy and unwholesome. My 7 & 9 yo demand this

My husband and I LOVE handing out candy, but we both decided that we're keeping the lights off this year and sitting it out. We'll still have pumpkins and some spooky decor but it just isn't worth doing the whole shebang until we can do it properly again next year.
We’ll walk by and say Happy HelloWeen!
Thats a super cute idea!!. We are having a backyard "carnival" with diy classic games (pin the spider on the web, pumpkin bowling, monster cans, ghost toss etc) a scavenger hunt, caramel apple making and a firepit for s'mores and weenies. We have an old projector so we are going to have a spooky double feature in the back yard too (ok probably Spookly and Hocus Pocus) the nice thing is, its all diy so the only cost is some candy, hotdogs and s'more makings lol

Sounds good. Keep the kiddos entertained, stay safe and have fun.

Curbside delivery. Next...
What's it like to be so full of it that you shit all over even the most innocent of things?

Trick-or-treating is actually a fairly safe activity because it occurs outside. I'm sure there are additional tweaks that could be done like requiring candy be left in baskets outside. But compared to all the much riskier indoor and family-gathering activities people are going to be engaging in come Oct/Nov, it seems like we should try and at least preserve the less-risky trick-or-treating tradition.
I'm way more worried about what people are going to do come Thanksgiving and Christmas. Big family gatherings have shown to be major spreading events!
Good points! It’s just a shower-thought and fun name... I doubt I’ll let my kids trick-or-treat if we’re still in this current phase. It’s not Sturgis-level exposure, but my kids can’t keep their hand off their faces, especially in cold weather. Thanks for the perspective!
I think it's cute, and if your kids like it, go for it!
Well thanks for that! Your positivity is going to pay off, internet friend
