1, trick or treat:
Halloween is a mysterious festival in the eyes of children. As night falls, the children can't wait to put on colorful makeup clothes, put on strange masks, put on a "jack lamp" and run out to play. The "Jack-o 'lantern" looks very cute. The way to do it is to hollow out the pumpkin, carve smiling eyes and a big mouth on the outside, then put a candle in the pumpkin and light it, so that people can see this naive smiling face in a far distance. After packing up, groups of children dressed as monsters ran to the neighbor's door with "Jack-o-lanterns" in their hands, threatening to shout "trick or treat" and "money or food". If adults don't treat them with candy or change, those naughty children will do what they say: OK, if you don't treat them, I'll play a trick on you. Sometimes they soap other people's doorknobs and sometimes color other people's cats. These little pranks often make adults laugh and cry. Of course, most families are very happy to entertain these innocent little guests, so children always have full stomachs and pockets on Halloween.
2. Jack-o-lanterns:
? JACK-o'-lanterns originated in ancient Ireland. The story is about a child named Jack who loves pranks. One day after JACK's death, he went to hell because he did something bad and couldn't go to heaven. However, in hell, he was stubborn and tricked the devil into getting on the tree. Then he carved a cross on the stump, threatening the devil to make him afraid to come down. Then JACK made a pact with the devil for three chapters, making the devil promise to cast a spell and let JACK get off the tree on the condition that he would never commit a crime. The hellhound was very angry when he learned about it, and kicked JACK out. He had to wander around the world with a radish lamp and hide in when he met a human. Gradually, JACK's behavior was forgiven by people, and children followed suit on Halloween. The ancient radish lamp has evolved to today, and it is Jack-O-Lantern made of pumpkin It is said that soon after Irish people arrived in America, they found that pumpkins were superior to radishes in terms of source and carving, so pumpkins became Halloween pets.
3. Ghost Parade:
On the Halloween of1October 3 1, wonderful live performances, illusion magic staged on the stage, lifelike walkers and ghosts, and various horror movies can be seen everywhere on the streets of the United States. In the evening, I quickly put the spider silk up and help the actors who are responsible for scaring people put on makeup. The contents of haunted houses are mostly related to movie themes, such as: legends of ghosts and gods, interstellar legends and ghost stories. The layout, makeup techniques and costumes of these scenes are like real situations. If you are not careful, you will definitely scream.
4. Ghost Carnival:
New york also held a parade on Halloween night, which allowed a group of vampires, zombies, witches, Frankenstein and so on to show up in unison. Citizens were also welcome to visit. The attendees were not limited to age, gender, class or nationality. Even if you are a coward, you can join them and have a lively carnival of ghosts and people. In fact, these ghosts are all dressed up by people, so they are not terrible. On the contrary, some small faces are even more lovely, which makes people stay in them, just like attending a large fancy dress ball.
5, "bite the apple" game:
Another custom of Halloween is the most popular game of "biting apples". In the game, people let the apple float in a basin filled with water, and then let the participants bite the apple with their mouths without using their hands. Whoever bites first will be the winner.
Share with you, my family is in the north, my children are in a large class in kindergarten, and the kindergarten organized a Halloween activity. When we went there, the teachers dressed up as various "grimaces" and the clothes were colorful. First of all, let each child get a pumpkin lantern at the kindergarten gate, then participate in various activities, enter a haunted house, answer two simple questions to get candy, enter another haunted house to sing a few songs, and get all kinds of fruits. At the same time, each room has different Halloween music, accompanied by the screams of children, so lively, children like this Halloween game very much. I don't know what Halloween activities everyone has, so we can share and communicate together!
