I know it's a little ways out, but My SO and I have never been big fans of Halloween. Now that we have a 7m old we want to start traditions for all holidays. What are some traditions you do with your family for Halloween?

My mom used to take me and my older brothers with a friend of her and her 6 kids around the neighborhood. I'm planning on taking my daughter (she'll be 5 months) to my best friend's to go with her two daughters (4yrs and 7mth)

Trick or treating. Baking Halloween cookies. Decorating inside by letting them put window decorations on and carving a pumpkin. We also go to a pumpkin farm.

This year my son will only be 9 months. It's a tradition that my SO and I carve pumpkins. We are thinking about getting him one of the little pumpkins and setting up a bunch of paints and letting him paint it since he is obviously to young to carve it. We aren't taking him trick or treating yet but I am making him a costume to take pictures in. ๐

We are dressing our LO up and going to a few different carnivals for Halloween. I'm also making my niece and nephews little goody bags without candy, their parents don't like the sugar.

As kids it was on Halloween night- now that she is a grandma it's the week of halloween>>my mom does a "spooky" dinner: brains-spaghetti fingers- breadsticks eyeballs- deviled eggs ribs...witches brew- apple cider with dry ice... And we all eat in our costumes and have spooky music play in the back ground๐

My mom always made Caramel Apples! (and the kids helped) It was super simple but it was a good tradition to start with my mom & my sisters. But Growing up my family ( mom, dad, brothers and sisters, cousins, grandma and grandpa) would dress up and do trick or treating at our church. But my hubby and I just stay in watch scary movies and eat candy & make Caramel apples because we don't have any little ones yet :)
