Hi all, I love Halloween. I love taking dc trick or treating in our village. People are great here and it's always a big thing.
But.. I've already told dc it won't be happening this year due to obvious reasons. Can't see how it's safe and I assumed everyone would feel the same. So many children around here in a small place. People even travel here from surrounding areas. Too many to promise full social distancing. And giving our sweets with close contact isn't ideal. People have mentioned leaving in bowls outside but multiple hands in a bowl sounds hideous.
So yeah I've already told dc that it won't be happening assuming everything will think the same. Of course everyone can make their own decisions what they want to do.
The local village Facebook group has a new post about how so many kids still want to do and how to make it safe.
Maybe there is a way 🤷♀️
But aibu to think that it's probably not the best idea at all? And people should make fun in other ways.
We are planning decorations, sweets and chocolate at home, costumes and sweets at home plus Halloween movies. Maybe a take away in the evening.
I really don't want multiple children knocking on the door because I don't really want to answer over and over again! I usually love it but this year sounds like a nightmare!
