What is a trunk or treat?
A Halloween event where children go from car to car instead of door to door. Families park in one place β usually a church, school or community car park β open their boots, decorate them, and hand out candy from the back. It began at American churches in the 1990s as a safer, more contained alternative to trick-or-treating, and most now add a costume parade, games or a best-decorated-trunk contest.
What should kids bring to a trunk or treat?
Their costume, a treat bucket or bag, and something that glows β a glow stick or a small torch β because most events run after dark. Comfortable shoes help: a big car park is a lot of walking.
