We used to have a tradition of "Boo-ing" families - dropping off a basket or bag of goodies at the doorstep and running away before they could see who had done it. That was tricking and treating at the same time!Suzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11541556209135670998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8748873385230288093.post-12375541721729574392012-09-26T21:43:34.063+10:002012-09-26T21:43:34.063+10:00Trick or treat for a day is such a fun idea!

We celebrate Halloween in Australia but only because our whole street (I live in a gated community)gets into it. I think it's wonderful for children to have more pretend play in their lives and I love your idea of building up to the event with tricks and treats!Pennyhttp://www.wildlifefun4kids.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8748873385230288093.post-3757709979226663112012-09-25T21:17:01.638+10:002012-09-25T21:17:01.638+10:00I totally agree, a brilliant idea!!

It's good to have some validation of the "tricky" side of the equation as well as of treating someone.
