Re: What time are you taking the kids Trick or Treating?

we're starting at like 3:30- 4 when the older kids get home from school and we get the costumes on. We have a group of about 15 kids ranging in ages from 13 to 10 months. Usually what happens is we go out with everyone around 4 and the little ones(under 3/4) go home between 5-6 and the older ones stay out with my DH till they're done. Sometimes not till 8.

Re: What time are you taking the kids Trick or Treating?

We've never gone before 6:00pm. We wait until people are home from work and after dinner. Going earlier you're lucky if there's 3 people home and the kids aren't happy with that, lol! We'll go at 6:00pm this year. In our neighborhood, there are a TON of kids. We actually wanted to go out a little earlier 2 years ago, but NO ONE was out until a specific time. It's like everyone was waiting for the first person to go. Chat Icon

We are hosting after school snacks for the kids on our street and then we'll all go out together when they are ready, probably around 4:30. At least they can trick or treat around our 8 houses to start while we wait for more people to be home. It's about 12 kids 2-14.

I think our wagon train with neighbors is going around 4:30 after the older kids and teacher moms get home from school.

If you go early you may be knocking at empty houses. I dont get home from work until 4:30 so I think well eat an early dinner and then head out at 5:30. I hate cooking after we get home - Im so tired and have to give them baths, check candy etc.

Re: What time are you taking the kids Trick or Treating?

I am in the minority -- we will probably go around my neighborhood to the people who I know will be home in the late morning before DD'S nap. DH has to work at 5 and he wants to be a part of it too. Then I will probably bring her to my parents' neighborhood after 4 for a little while. She is sick today and will probably just be starting to feel better, but I don't want to have her around other kids so I won't be joining any groups, unfortunately. Chat Icon

My neighborhood does the same thing. They always go when the kids get home which is about 4-4:30ish.... The parents keep a cooler in the wagon and drink the night away while crowds of kids trick or treat all at once. I can't wait to join them this year! Chat Icon Chat Icon

Their daycare is having festivities so I may keep them there until close to 4 and then go to a local friend and then around our neighborhood.

We are going around 5pm. My kids are little so we're just doing our block. We'll be done by 5:30 I think.

Early evening if we go in our neighborhood. Haven't decided yet. Most people don't get home before 5ish though, so it's a waste to go earlier.

We don't go until it starts to get dark out. The kids like it better and more people are home and prepared.
