Home Search Site As Halloween creeps up, kids will dream of spooky costumes, jack-o’-lanterns and haunted houses. Halloween is one of the most thrilling nights of the year for children, and also one of the most dangerous. As kids hit the street to trick-or-treat, the potential for unintentional injury rises. In fact, children are four times more likely to be hit by a car on Halloween than any other night of the year. Halloween can indeed be scary, with increases in pedestrian injuries, burns and falls among children. “Children may be distracted by the excitement of the night and the fun of trick-or-treating, and may not take safety to the street. Careless street crossing coupled with drivers’ more limited vision at night can make for a deadly mix.” said Heather Paul, Ph.D., executive director of the National SAFE KIDS Campaign. “Many of the risks kids face on Halloween can be avoided if parents discuss important safety precautions with their kids.” As parents and children take time to construct costumes and decorations, the National SAFE KIDS Campaign recommends the following:

44. Halloween Ideas halloween boxes = This is an old game and works well for some kids,but don't force any one to do it!! You first of all teach some unusual body http://www.genkienglish.net/halloween.htm

GenkiEnglish.com Page in Japanese One of the easiest holidays to teach to kids is Hallowe'en as there are so many great games that you can play! Most of them don't teach very much English, but culture is very important. One point to bear in mind is that the modern Hallowe'en is mainly an American tradition, in England or Australia we don't really do that much for Hallowe'en!! It's still fun though! Apple bobbing This is a cool game to play outside during lunchbreak. Simply fill a deep barrel full of water and put some apples in. One kid at a time, with their hands tied behind their back, comes and tries to pick up one of the apples with their teeth! If they fail 3 times, a new kid has a go. (And thanks to Dennis of Nagano-ken for suggesting using vodka instead of water for more grown up students!). Another variation is to have an apple dangling from the ceiling by a string. Costume Karuta I had this great idea whilst having a meeting in Kagawa prefecture. First of all you prepare several sets of simple Hallowe'en costumes. Examples could be a sheet for a ghost, a hat for a witch or a mask for a wolf man, or whatever!! You split the kids into teams and each team has a full set of costumes. The teacher shouts out a word, e.g. "ghost", and the front kid from each group has to run to the costumes and put on the correct one! The fastest kid gets 2 points, if the other kids got the correct costume they get 1 point!

Radwin Halloween LOS ALTOS BREWS HALLOWEEN DEBATE Search LOS ALTOS BREWS HALLOWEEN DEBATE SOME PARENTS WANT END TO PARTIES THEY SAY GLORIFY SATAN AND THE OCCULT Thursday, October 12, 1995 Section: Local Page: 1B By: By LORI ARATANI, Mercury News Staff Writer Harmless fun? Or funless harm? A spirited debate has broken out in the Los Altos Elementary School District over the holiday known as Halloween. The board has temporarily banned school-time Halloween celebrations at the request of a group of parents who believe the holiday glorifies Satan and the occult. ''I don't want to be a party pooper, but I want to warn people about the dangers of opening the door to occultism and satanism,'' said parent Jan Franklin, whose two children recently graduated from Mountain View High School. Franklin and other parents complain that in-school celebrations imply that schools endorse a holiday that violates some children's religious beliefs and places kids in uncomfortable situations when they don't participate. But another group of equally vocal parents is fighting back to save a holiday they say is about pumpkins and candy, not devil worship.

Brandenburg, MD Children love to dress up in costumes because it lets them express their imagination and creativity. Halloween is a day when they can do just that. And getting lots of candy while "trick-or-treating" is a wonderful bonus that just adds to the fun. Halloween does have a few dangers, but none that a few basic safety measures can't eliminate. Costumes When planning a safe Halloween, first consider all parts of your child's costume. Be sure the clothing and accessories allow for safe trick-or-treating. Be sure the costume and accessories (i.e., masks, wigs, beards and hats) are made of flame-resistant material and that no flammable objects are included. Watch out for flammable decorations. Outdoor jack-o'-lanterns have caught many a kid's costume on fire. Masks should be soft and comfortable so as not to abrade a child's face and eyes. They should also be snug enough so they don't fall down over the eyes and obstruct vision. A well-fitting mask allows for a full field of vision. If you can, avoid a mask all-together. Make-up is preferable to a mask because it allows better vision.

Votes: Rating: An Effective Media Team Starts With The Coach By Tim Eason In high school I was a member of a championship football team. For those of you who know me, this may come as a surprise since I don’t have a large build. Well it was a flag football team. I played in a Christian league for the school that I attended and we went undefeated for two years in a row. The “Son-Blazers” was the team to beat! This wasn’t always the case, however. Our first year, we won only one game out of the whole season. The following year, the school hired a new coach. “Coach Cline” was a hard man. He trained us like a regular tackle-football team. We ran and ran and ran. I’ve never been in better physical shape since that time. He was also compassionate, however. Coach Cline was handed a loosing team, but he saw winners in all of us. In particular, there was a boy on the team who had no apparent athletic skills. He couldn’t throw or catch. The ball would bounce off of his chest every time. He seemed hopeless. He tried to quit several times, but Coach Cline wouldn’t let him. This kid did do one thing well, however. He could outrun anyone on the team. He would have made a great receiver if he could catch. Instead of giving up on him, Coach Cline decided to capitalize on the boy’s speed. If he could develop the player’s hands to be able to pull flags from the opposing team, this kid would be a valuable asset. He ran special drills just for the boy and his skill at capturing flags eventually matched his talent for speed. He became a star defensive lineman in the league and was a formidable opponent to any offence attempting to cross the goal line.

54. Halloween halloween is not 'of the devil,' as some FUNDAMENTALISTS say. Many denominationsdon't teach about the COMMUNION OF SAINTS, so naturally they don't celebrate http://www.churchpages.org/fortheloveofthefamily/articles/halloween.htm

I recently received the following article from another Pastor. This is certainly something for the Christian to ponder and I felt it should be passed on. II Corinthians 6:14-18, I Corinthians 6:19-20. HALLOWEEN: A CELEBRATION FOR SATANISTS, WITCHES, AND CATHOLICS - NOT FUNDAMENTAL CHRISTIANS! A Roman Catholic website briefly describes the meaning of Halloween to modern Catholics: The same website also describes the ORIGINS of Halloween: Finally, this same website also reveals Halloween's relatively recent birth in the U.S.: "...the current custom of going door-to-door to collect treats actually started in Ireland hundreds of years ago...When an influx of Irish Catholic immigrants came to the United States in the 1800s, the custom of trick-or-treating came with them. Does your family carve a pumpkin to place on your porch for Halloween? If so, then you can once again thank the Irish for the tradition. Actually, the custom began with a turnip. People would hollow out the turnips and place lighted candles inside to scare off the evil spirits. When the Irish came to America, they discovered the pumpkin as a larger substitute for the turnip. And so, we now carve pumpkins instead of turnips for Halloween." (AmericanCatholic.org) Indeed, Halloween was not popular in the U.S. until the 20th century, when it spread from the Irish Catholic settlements, and was later re-energized by the Wiccans. There is much common ground between Catholics and pagans, especially concerning the dead. As America grows increasingly Catholic and pagan (with the aid of the federal government through public education, etc.), it is no wonder that Halloween is increasingly growing in popularity. Paganism went mainstream in America in 1979 when two books (i.e. ''The Spiral Dance: A Rebirth of the Ancient Religion of the Great Goddess'' by Starhawk, and ''Drawing Down the Moon: Witches, Druids, Goddess-Worshippers, and Other Pagans in America Today'' by Margot Adler) were both released on Halloween. The Harry Potter movement is insuring that the children are not left out of this "new age."

About Us Education Emergency Management Fire Dept. Organization ... Prevention / Halloween Safety Tips Halloween Safety Tips A child's imagination has no limits on Halloween night. But as little ghosts and goblins roam the neighborhood in search of "tricks and treats" this Halloween, simple safety steps are a necessity. "Halloween could be one of the most dangerous nights of the year for young children," said Charlotte Fire Captain Tom Link. "It is important for parents and care givers to not only outfit children in safe costumes, but to review important safety tips with children before they go out trick-or treating." The majority of injuries that occur during Halloween are caused by falls, contact with motor vehicles, burns and collected treats. To help make sure your child's Halloween is safe, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Safe Kids Coalition recommends the following safety information and tips: Falls On Halloween night, children may find it difficult to walk safely through dark neighborhoods due to cumbersome costumes and blinding masks. The following tips can help prevent a child from sustaining a fall-related injury: Apply face paint or cosmetics directly to the face. It is safer than a loose-fitting mask that can obstruct a child's vision. If a mask is worn, be certain the mask fits securely. Cut the holes largely enough for full vision.

Many people view Halloween as a time of innocent fun. Children love to dress up as their favorite characters. They will go door to door saying the infamous words "trick or treat". Many adults also love Halloween, because it gives them a chance to let loose and act silly. Every year in the U.S.A. alone, millions of dollars are spent on Halloween goods. Halloween is the second highest grossing money maker outside of Christmas. The promotion of Halloween by the television moguls, the advertisers, and not to mention the blockbuster sales of movies and rentals this time of year. Everyone can see Halloween is big business. Alot of people do not see the harm in all of this Halloween hoopla. But yes, there is a darker side to Halloween than anyone dares to imagine. THE ORIGIN OF HALLOWEEN Unlike our modern-day Halloween, theirs was not a children's holiday. The Celts and their priests, the Druids, from Great Britain and Ireland. They celebrated "SAMHAIN". It was a festival that marked the eve of the Celtic New Year, which began on November 1. The fall harvest was complete and winter was looming ahead. The Celts believed the sun was fading away, at this time of the year. For the next several months, darkness prevailed. The Celts believed that during "Samhain" the veil separating life from death was at its thinnest. On the evening of October 31, the evil spirits and souls of the dead passed through the barrier and visited the world of the living. The Celts believed these spirits could cause all kind of havoc. They also believed that they could talk with the dead, departed loved ones and such. They also believed that they could devine the future. The powers of darkness were conjured up on "Samhain". The Devil himself, would be called upon to foretell of future events.

Halloween: Is it time for a change? Death and Satan? Halloween, when I was a child, was a time of excitement with home-made costumes, goodies handed out by smiling neighbors and a chance to stay up just a little bit later than usual. I didn't equate my innocent fun with death, evil or satanic rituals. Those were the "Leave it to Beaver" days. Today, however, Halloween seems to have taken a turn for the worse. Perhaps the holiday is more deeply rooted in death, dark spirituality and evil intent that we believed. Or perhaps the ghosts and goblins are playing games with my middle-aged mind. According to About.com's Guide to Paganism, "Pagans celebrate a slightly different holiday, known as Samhain , but we like to dress up as much as the next guy." After reading this article, the harvest celebration, stressing that death is a natural process and is necessary for beginnings, does not seem to be a time of evil, but a celebration of the fruits of a year's work. But, there is more to learn. A recent article on About.com sheds a little lantern-glow on the fearful side of Samhain. "Modern Halloween traditions involving the dark, the macabre and the occult may be directly related to many early beliefs and traditions surrounding the Samhain festival. It was widely believed that the door between the mundane world and the spiritual world opened that night, so that faeries, ghosts and other spiritual entities walked the earth freely. Masks may have been worn, turnip-lanterns carried, and huge fires lit by villagers in attempt to scare away these spiritual entities. It was also a time when, because of the thinning of the veil between the two worlds, the accuracy of various divinatory practices was believed to be heightened, and prophecy and fortune telling were very popular pastimes.
