"Trick or treat, smell my feet, give me something good to eat." It is that time of year...HALLOWEEN IS NEAR! This is not just a holiday that children love and get excited for because they get to dress up and get candy. I am 20-years-old and I still get excited about Halloween. My favorite part is planning and putting together my costume! Each year I search Pinterest and Google for costume ideas.
