They are so important to our country, to our ideals, to our democracy.
#HOW MANY MORE DAYS UNTIL HALLOWEEN JANUARY 5 2017 FREE#
I’m a strong proponent of free speech and a free press. In 2016, I saw an everwidening chasm towards the vilification of journalists, and it concerned me. My cosplay was a riff on the one I did in 2016. What are your plans for Halloween? Do you have any suggestions for making it fun and safe for kids in this unusual year? I’m planning on dressing up as a postal carrier if I can find my parents’ old work shirts. Teach our kids that we need to make some changes this year to keep everyone safe, and we can do that and still have fun.
In the meantime, let’s enjoy Halloween as best as we can. Same with Christmas just add presents to the drive thru lane. Go to Grandma’s house and she’ll give everyone a Tupperware filled with a portioned out turkey dinner. Maybe we can have a Halloween inspired Thanksgiving. To be honest, it really sounds a lot easier. There’s no hugging, shaking hands, sitting around a table talking and eating. The candy givers can wear masks and gloves. Kids can come to the door one or two at a time. And it can be done in a responsible and socially distant way. I don’t mean it’s more important than our traditional family holidays, but in some ways it kind of is. We haven’t decided our holiday plans, but I also think that Halloween is a different circumstance. I know some doctors and experts have talked about avoiding family during the holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas, which are closer than we think they are. We can wear gloves and put it right into their basket or bag. I also thought that instead of having the kids reach into our candy bowl and choose their preference, we would have more of the same candies and hand it out ourselves. I know our items are safe, but why put the parents in the position of having to say no to a toy if they have (legitimate) concerns. We’ve decided to suspend this practice until next year (hopefully). Some are packaged, but some are gently used. They toys are the kind you get from McDonald’s Happy Meals or similar small items. We usually have a bucket of toys and comic books in addition to candy, so the kids can choose which treat they prefer. The parents would do all the work and the neighbors who participated would volunteer so the kids weren’t randomly going to people’s houses who had no idea what was going on.
I thought that seemed reasonable.Īnother thought was of a scavenger hunt with houses providing clues to their kids to find candy. One neighbor wants to do treat bags on a table at the end of the driveway, and limit trick or treating to certain hours – from five until eight. On my neighborhood Facebook group, there have been some questions about neighborhood plans as well as some suggestions. They’ve already been hanging out with these friends since summer, so it’s equally safe as doing homework together. They’re planning on going to friends’ houses and celebrating with a party instead of traditional trick or treating. Well, at least everyone’s already wearing masks, right? My kids are in high school, so it’s less of an issue for us. Copy that then paste in the comment box below.Halloween during a pandemic. Click on the three dots and there will be an "Embed Code" you can copy. To share: Underneath your photo is three dots (.). try not to cheat, and use the first image it gives you, even if you aren't too fond of it! This is a fun and random way to share some of our older work. If you click it, it will take you to one of your past photos. Near the bottom of the list you'll find the flashback view link. This information box contains a list of options under your thumbnails, such as views, comments, album name, etc. If you have 30 or more photos in your project, there will be a flashback link in the information box on any one of your photo pages. So let the flashbacks beginĪ part of the reason for this theme is to help highlight some of our past work and get more involved with others that you may not otherwise be exposed to.) On this day in history, in a little over 15 hours, the United States of America will see the 45th President take the oath of office.
