Halloween

Halloween is a holiday based on ancient harvest
celebrations and superstitions. Today Halloween
is a day and night of merriment and pranks filled
with safe-but-scary fun and trick or treat.
Trick or Treat candy is
the traditional hand out for youngsters at Halloween,
and according to recent research, sweet treats
are no more harmful to your teeth than other foods
that contain starch or sugar.

Fancy Dress and Costumes Try your hand at making a home made costume or
body paints. You can use creative makeup instead
of a mask - for small children, face paint is
often the best Halloween disquise. Halloween makeup
is safer than a mask for night time trick-or-treating,
and more acceptable to babies and toddlers.

household ingredients- whip up a batch of non-toxic

Halloween Is Fun for All Ages
Dressing up in costume or painting
your face with makeup is the rule of the day on
Halloween, whether you're 3 or 83. It's not unusual
to find office workers, store clerks, or even
a few business professionals dressed in costume and handing out treats to co-workers, clients
and customers every year around Halloween time.
I was at a board meeting of manufacturing
executives not many years ago when suddenly a
tall circus clown entered the room, carrying with
a pumpkin treat basket filled with candy treats
that he offered to every meeting attendee.
You
guessed it: hiding behind that clown nose and makeup was the fun-loving owner of a well-known
Pennsylvania candy company who enjoys the sweet side of all the
holidays!
