Luckily despite advertisers best efforts it is not a huge event in NZ. We read the chapter in Mary Poppins about Halloween and other than i will just tell them that it is not part of our culture. But i think the early tour of selected houses followed by a play date and maybe a themed shared meal would be fun.
Make your own halloween traditions. How about an in house trick or treat?
ugh my kids are desperate for Halloween to come. Luckily the local library is having a Halloween craft and story day for 2 - 10 year olds so they can get dressed up and get it out of their system.
I too would be going with the low key community event idea, it's likely to attract others wanting less fuss.
