Last year, the weekend after Halloween the neighbourhood organized a route for kids to go by houses. We missed the memo until, in the days leading up to the event, various neighours started to decorate their houses. On the day itself we were away, when we got back it was nearly over but the neighbourhood went all out. There were house decorated very simple, but others had music or sound effect, one even had a smoke machine.
We had been thinking of joining in with the fun. Yesterday the organizers posted on Facebook that parents can sign up their kids and people can sign up their house for kids to come by. The organization provides candy and you can even borrow decorations from them. However, you can expect 400 kids to come by!
So my sister and I decided against signing up, but we'll be decorating our front window and front yard. I already got a couple of things for my own dormer window in the attic. And I've got a couple of balls of yarn and googly eyes to make ghosts to hang from a string. And we'll probably take a walk around the neighbourhood to look at all the decorations.
