Trick or Treat!

Its Halloween!

We won't be home this evening so I left out a bowl of chocolate bars for any children who call.

There are only about 10 children on our street and I don't know if any will call - some are quite young.

Traditionally when you call looking for sweets at neighbors doors in Ireland you would chant "Help the Halloween Party". However over time (and probably seeing it in movies) children have gradually started saying the American "Trick or Treat".  I grew up saying "Help the Halloween Party" - I miss the kids saying it! 

What did you say as a child when you called to houses at Halloween?
