A HAPPY HALLOWEEN 🎃 👻 🎃

in #ulog5 years ago

When I was a kid, halloween was not a day to look forward to, unlike nowadays most of the kids are exciting about halloween.

Since last week my Pio, was doing a countdown to halloween, I asked him, why is he excited for that day, ”Nanay, don’t you know that it is the day that kids wear costumes and everyone is giving treats for us” an innocent and honest answer from my baby.

WHAT IS HALLOWEEN?

Halloween’s origins date back to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain (pronounced sow-in). The Celts, who lived 2,000 years ago in the area that is now Ireland, the United Kingdom and northern France, celebrated their new year on November 1.
This day marked the end of summer and the harvest and the beginning of the dark, cold winter, a time of year that was often associated with human death. Celts believed that on the night before the new year, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred. On the night of October 31 they celebrated Samhain, when it was believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to earth.

Nowadays kids doesn’t know about that, and I don’t know if it is being taught at school, that’s why even my nephews doesn’t know why there is halloween, all they know is that the next day is all souls day and everyone will be busy visiting the departed loved ones at the cemetery, that’s why the day before that was given to kids for them to enjoy...😄😄😄.... Funny answer but make sense...

This morning when i woke up, My plan was to clean the bedrooms and the closet, but the kids are persistent on asking me to go to the trick or treat on one of the malls in the city, so for me to rest my voice nagging at them the whole day, we went to the City,

We arrived early, the event will start at 1pm but we are there 10am so after registration, we took our lunch first, after lunch we bought some halloween stuffs, they don’t want to wear fancy costumes they just want to watch the magic show and the contestants for the best halloween looks....

The kids enjoyed and so am I, it was a bit tiring because of a lot of participants but worth it seeing the kids are happy,

Hope you guys Had a Great Halloween 🎃 👻 👻 ....
