The nights have drawn in and Halloween is upon us. Although some people are uncomfortable about Halloween and its associations with witchcraft, for young children it is a time of innocent magic and mystery. Try some of these ideas for fun with the children in your care and make this year's celebration an experience none of you will ever forget!
