A Spook-tacular Halloween to Everyone!! Happy Halloween to All of our Boo-tiful Readers

by Jared Rajoo

Greetings to our readers,

It’s time now to celebrate a fun-filled October 31st - Halloween - when the barriers between the natural and supernatural worlds are their thinnest. For the rest of us it means yummy treats and cool costumes and maybe a party.

For parents with kids and kids it means candy! The joy of trick or treating and checking out who can gather the most goodies.

Dads - we know that we have a vested share in all that’s collected - it is the law!

My first Halloween I got to celebrate was in Can- ada when I was about 10 years old. Living in Alberta, I wondered what the point of dressing up in a costume that no one would be able to see under the many layers we needed to keep warm in the brisk October night.

I soon received a few handfuls of candy and soon began to understand.

I would invite our readers to share your stories with us. Write in as we love to hear from our readers. Be sure to check us out on social media to check out for our next publication.

Halloween is a beautiful and fun filled time, but remember to always stay safe, remember to check that candy is safe before consuming and always know where your kids are.

Wishing you all a safe and happy Halloween.

Until next time, stay safe and stay healthy.

Greetings to our readers,

As someone who loves horror stories and movies, Halloween is a really special to time for me. My fondest memory of Halloween was when I hosted a Halloween party for my nieces and nephews.

All dressed up in themed costumes, we played many fun games most from the list below. Each team made their own spell, we shared spooky stories, enjoyed lovely snacks and danced to Monster Mash (Song by Bobby “Boris” Pickett & The Crypt Kickers). To parents and guardians, it’s a wonderful opportunity to create amazing fun memories to bond with your kids and trust me, it does not have to cost and arm and a leg. Keep it simple, using fun and safe stuff around the house for the games and
