Do children still go trickle treating?

[reallifeboogie]

Moved house since last Halloween and now living on an estate. No kids myself but don't know if kids still go trickle treating at strangers houses? Happy to decorate and get sweets in

Never heard of trickle treating.

Trick or treating.
Yes they do

Trick or treating maybe?

The kids in our Close still go trick or treating. But they go as a group with adult supervision and only knock on doors with pumpkins or decorations out.

Trickle treating? As in a steady trickle of guisers coming to the door?

I’ve heard of Trick or Treating. No trickling involved.

God people can be mean. It's obviously a typo. Where I live trick or treating goes on. If you would like kids to knock then decorate, if not, they will most likely leave you alone.

They still do, although thankfully mine are now in their twenties so it has been many years since I was obliged to participate in trick or treating.

If you don't want to participate then don't put a pumpkin or lantern out and keep front lights turned off. That's what I do now, and nobody knocks. If they did I would ignore it.

Trickle treating 🤣🤣🤣 that's what I used to call it when I was younger.

Last year we had maybe one knock on the door.

Maybe we should do trickle treating. Like give them one sweet and tell them to come back in an hour for another one? 🤣

Yes, around here children go to decorated houses. No pumpkins, no visitors is the aim.

Yes, they still do Trick or Treat here. Like others have said, they will only knock on the door if lights are on and you have decorated.

Do you also say Chester Drawers…?

Very big round here, but only if houses have pumpkins or similar out. Starts about 5 till 8 here.

Or Chester Draws.
🤣

Mine do! (Trick or treating, anyway)

Aged 5 and 10. 10 year old still very keen on dressing up and doing the whole thing, although she likes to go round our little estate with a friend instead of with us these days. The youngest goes round with us and we happen to bump into the big one a few times, entirely coincidentally 😉 of course.

What about tickle treating?

ooer missus!

This thread is hilarious !

Mr Chester Draws to you

We have loads of trick or treaters every year where we are! But we do live on a new build estate with lots of families, at least every other house have kids, so I’d expect that!

Me and my sister used to call it trickle treating 😂😂

Yes but the general consensus these days is children will go to the houses that are decorated and leave the undecorated houses alone in peace.
