I try to limit the amount of sugar the children eat, A friend of mine actually tells her children that the Halloween fairy takes any left over candy away that night! And as for decor, I purchased a few items last year and just packed them away and used them again this year, There is also many decorations you can make yourself as well, last year I made a cardboard bunting which I used again this year. Costumes can be anything. Do what your comfortable with and celebrate it in your own way.

Personally I think it should be enjoyed purely for its current day silliness.

The kids have never participated in any halloween antics, I've told them my reasons, American not Australian tradition, encourages more sugar consumption in an already obese society, contributes to even more consumerism and landfill when we throw out our 'cheap' decorations etc the next day...BUT even hubby said this year that the kids who were out trick or treating looked like they were having so much fun!...And I've always relied on him to back me up!!<br /><br />HELP!Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07900993246451486017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7279474068763393751.post-20754747417849192522012-11-01T21:23:09.168+10:002012-11-01T21:23:09.168+10:00We only succumbed when number five was born and ma...We only succumbed when number five was born and managed to avoid years of it with the others. The spooky food is such fun! <br />Last year we made lala's birthday a Halloween one as she has it on the fifth of Nov.
