If not, you're not alone! Sometimes, it's a bit of a last-minute rush to get everything in place for your neighborhood visitors, but don't worry - we're here to help! Be sure to follow this checklist to make your home a hotspot for Halloween activity!
● Clear your walkway from the sidewalk to your home so that it's safe for trick-or-treaters to get to your door. Walking in masks and costumes is tough enough!
● Pick the best spot for handing out candy. Most people choose their doorway or porch, but if you've got a long driveway or a tricky path to the patio, think about setting up a candy stop closer to the sidewalk. Make it fun by turning it into a whole display, complete with spooky decorations!
● Let there be light! Houses that are well-lit are favorites for trick-or-treaters, so make sure your pathways and home are illuminated to let everyone know that you're accepting knocks (and knock-knock jokes if they have any to tell!).
Finally, offer a variety of Halloween candy to suit every taste. Some kids may not like chocolate while others may prefer gummies. A variety can make for some very happy kids in your neighborhood! We've got you covered there with our huge selection of Halloween candies to choose from on BlairCandy.com!
