So I know that South Africans arent really big on Halloween but Dowerglen Ext 3 residents decided to have a group initiative this year and all the kids went trick or treating together. Residents that participated had to put ribbons on their door to show the kids they could knock.....

All the sweeties

Amber was lucky enough to have her beloved grandparents there as well as her favourite Aunt- Jess to accompany her! She was very hesitant due to all the 'monsters' lurking around and also to knock on doors that is until she saw that the reward for that was sweets....
It was such a lovely evening and the walk did us all good.
While the woman were out we left it to Oupie and Sias to hand out sweeties to the kids. When we eventually arrived the sweets were nearly all finished because Sias was giving each child about two handfulls each- LOL!! Next year he will be better trained.....
That's funny! Amber looks perfect (she has to do a Halloween here sometime...it's incredible:)
ReplyDeleteI love that Sias gave out two hand fulls of candy. I did that and thought "no big deal the kids wont take that much they'll be polite." Well within 20 minutes I was completely OUT of candy and I had a HUGE packet. BIG MISTAKE! Now I know why people give each child 1!
George is the most generous candy giver ever. Kids will knock on the door, take a handful, and my dearest will say take some more! He is always well prepared though, probably because he has a sweet tooth himself. Wish that fairy princess could knock at our door for sweeties. Love you.
