The day is nearing that your children have been looking forward to since school started: trick-or-treat night! The night your children can be whatever they want to be, until they get tired or their costume becomes too scratchy, and they receive all the candy they can handle and more. It's pretty exciting for parents, too, but things can get out of hand when adults try to make trick-or-treat an opportunity to relive their childhood, or even worse, make it perfect. Much like Christmas or a wedding, perfection can take all the fun out of the experience.
Lifehacker takes us through seven things to keep in mind to make trick-or-treat night safe, fun, and less stressful than it can sometimes be for both parents and children. This year could be a cherished memory for your children and neighbors! -Thanks, WTM!
