Halloween is celebrated each year on October 31 and historians believe that its tradition originated with an ancient Celtic festival where people lit bonfires and wore costumes to ward off ghosts, serve each other “trick-or-treat”, carve jack-o-lanterns and generally engage in festive gatherings to ward off all evil. Halloween trick-or-treating is a beloved tradition for parents and children alike but safety should always be a top priority hence, to ensure a fun and memorable experience, here are some tips for parents and children to enjoy this popular tradition - (Photo by Daisy Anderson on Pexels)
