This is a video poem that is meant for the little crowd having a "love, hate" relationship with Halloween.  How can you not be scared when there are such scary  things  outside with you while you Trick or Treat!?
These are the supplies you will need if you would like to have fun with some activities after watching the video poem:
  1. Your 3 ring binder 
  2. Lined Paper - for journaling
  3. Drawing paper
  4. Pencil or Pen - for writing, of course
  5. Crayons/Markers/Colored pencils-for creating beautiful artwork
  6. 3 Hole Punch - to be able to punch holes in your drawing paper so you can be sure to keep your art and journal pages together

TRICK OR TREAT

It's nearly Halloween, quick run and hide!
There are lots of spooky things around outside

Vampires flying their pet bats like kites
Way up high in the moonlit night

Black cats scurring across the street
Chased by witches near to their feet

Through the mist, ghosts whirl to and fro
Their wake casting off an eerrie green glow

Come out, come out wherever you are
You really don't have to run very far

Shout B-O-O, yes very loudly yell BOO!!
And all spooky creatures will run from you too!

Back to their Mummy for a gigantic hug
Safe and sound, wrapped up nice and snug.


Questions for you and your child:
  1. Why do you think Halloween can be scary?
  2. What can you do to help yourself feel better if you do get scared? (Parents, this might be a good time to teach your child basic breathing techniques while explaining how this little trick can help calm them down when they are scared. Grow with Me Poetry's initial chapters introduces you to mindfulness and these basic breathing techniques as well as how to pass that information on to your child so that they may use the practice to help control their emotions.
  3. What is your favorite kind of "treat"?
  4. Draw a picture of your favorite Halloween costume or Halloween spooky creature.
