If your child trick or treated...

[oswin]

DD is one and we went to maybe 3 houses. We only really went because our neighborhood had a costume parade in the park, then we stopped a couple of times on the way home. She walked a lot though and did surprisingly well.

[GotWine]

DD and the other little boy we went with are 2.5 and we went to 7 houses. It was in the 40s and dry. We got a later start than I had wanted and still needed supper so we didn't go to too many houses.

We ToTed last night. We hit up probably 12-15 houses, just all along one road/neighborhood (we went to all of the ones available). The weather was clear, upper 40s (no jackets, just layers). Both girls walked (I had to carry my younger one for a little while).

My girls are 2 and almost 4.

This is our 2nd year of "real" ToTing - last year we hit probably 25 houses on a nice warm night. My older (then 2.75yr) walked the whole way and the little one rode in the wagon. Prior to that, we just went to a couple neighbor's houses to show off costumes, not for candy.

It was 30 degrees and windy. DS is 5 and we hit maybe 20 houses? We had to drive house to house so it took forever.

The real question: how many peices of candy did you allow your child to have? How many peices did you eat?

We're doing one piece at lunch and one piece at dinner. DH and I are doing the same.

I sorted through and took out my favorites. I also threw away stuff I didn't want them to have for choking or dental reasons (gum, taffy).

3-year-old trick or treated; 10 month old was bundled up in the stroller. It was around 40 degrees. We did it for an hour and probably hit 20-30 houses.

[dragonfly08]

My kids are 8 and 11. Weather was low 50's and clear, and they hit every house in the neighborhood, so about 25 total.

[ladygrey]

DD is 16 months. It was fairly cold (upper 30s) last night, but we bundled up and went to 4 of our favorite neighbors. It was less about the candy and more about socializing, plus everyone (especially the elderly couple) was delighted to see her.

[meltoine]

They are 3 and 1. We visited about 15 houses, all on our block. It was about 50 degrees when we were ToT.

10.5 months, we did 8 apartments spread over 4 floors so indoors the whole time.

She couldn't even be bothered to pick a piece of candy that people offered and just kept staring at the neighbors, giving them an occasional toothless smile. I was tired and wanted to bail at the last moment but decided to take her anyways to support those apartments who participated. By the end, DD started to recognize the orange pumpkin on people's doors. I think a total of 10 kids came by ours including DD.

[loskadoodle]

Ds is 2. We went to probably 40 houses. We live in south florida though so it was in the 70s.

[pugz]

27 months, we probably went to 12-15 houses and she walked to all of them. It was chilly but not terrible, 40s I think. She enjoyed it.

[jinxy]

DS is 2. It was cold (around 40) and damp but my kid wanted to stay out forever. He loved visiting all the houses and seeing the bigger kids in costume. After almost an hour it started misting rain so we called it a night. I'm not sure how much longer he would have lasted but he showed no signs of slowing down! We probably did around 20 houses.

[Deleted]

Ds is 3.5. He did 1.5 hours of walking. About 30 houses? And then a handful more by dh's cousin' s house. He has a shopping bag full of treats.

[docholly]

ODS is almost 4, and we trick or treated for about an hour. I am not sure how many houses that amounts to 20-30? I strolled YDS around in a stroller, but he didn't really trick or treat (18 months). We were in a group of other kids: 5 years old, 2 years old, and three years old. All but YDS trick or treated.

It was about 60 degrees out.  We went last weekend.  

[turtlegirl]

The boys are almost 4 and 2. We were gone for probably 1.5 hours. We carried them on and off if we're were walking past a few houses in a row with lights off. Probably 20 or more houses.

[meij]

It was cold here. The five year old and her friend made it to about twenty houses but the baby and I didn't make it that long.

[blushing]

My son is 6 years old. It was cLear and around 50. But he was complaining he was too hot. He was dressed as Darth Vader, and I had made him wear his tracksuit underneath, lol.
Not sure how many houses he visited because I stayed home with the baby, but he came back with about 50 pieces of candy and was gone for about 90 minutes. He did say most houses gave 1 piece a candy, some gave 2.

[dcn]

He is 2. It was 25 degrees, we went to 5 houses I think. Then he spent a good 45 min outside saying hi to all the trick or treaters and running around.

[kangaroo11]

High 60s, almost 2, 10 houses. We took the wagon and she loved it. She wouldn't talk at all, but she was good at picking a piece of candy and putting it in the bucket.

[cjeanette]

6 and 9. Went to two streets and a culde sac with the 6 year olds and some friends we had a driveway party with.

My 9 year old did the whole subdivision so maybe 90 homes. I let him go with friends

It was in the 40s

[irishbride2]

1.5 and 4.5

We went to two neighborhoods (ours and one of DDs friends).

We probably went to 30 houses at the friends BUT everyone sits out by the side walk with their candy so its really fast. You hit a full block in 5 minutes. We were there an hour or so.

We probably hit 10 at our neighborhood.

The weather was perfect. Low to mid 70s and no rain.

[drloretta]

4.5, probably 20ish. Weather was upper 40s with a slight breeze

[thebreakfastclub]

TOT was Thu; it was 50 degrees and dry, so much better than last night.

DS is 20 months. We went to 8 houses for about 20 minutes. I didn't bother with a costume, just a Halloween tee.

He loves pumpkins and the decor but didn't care about ToT, outside of meeting a couple of dogs.

[DarcyLongfellow]

5 and 1.5. Just the 5 year old trick or treated -- the baby was in her pajamas in the stroller because she lost her shit right before we left!

We hit maybe 15 houses or so. A lot of walking in between and long driveways so it took us 45 minutes to an hour! Most people were giving handfuls of candy because we don't get many trick or treaters in our neighborhood (see: Long driveways and houses further apart!). Some people even made up little treat bags and gave each kid a little baggie with a bunch of candy.

It was gorgeous weather here -- 70 or so and clear.

[ellipses84]

3 1/2, we went with a group of friends, it's had been really hot here recently, but it felt like a perfect fall night without jackets, he walked about 5 blocks but probably only 20 houses before he said his legs were tired. Last year was his first year TOT'ing and I think we did a lot more houses because he didn't want to stop! The year before we just went to a couple neighbors who we know, so they could see his costume.

[pinkdutchtulips]

5
probably by the time it was all over 50 houses
cool and overcast but not raining ! perfect halloween weather

[shellbear09]

18 months just next door it was 80ish. We enjoyed trunk or treat!

[rootbeerfloat]

7 and 5, and we visited 25 houses, maybe? DD would've been happy to keep going, but DS's costume turned out to be awkward to walk in (though he was a trooper), and my nephew was ready to eat pizza, lol. Probably high 70s, and though it rained during the day, it didn't at night.

[auberge]

My son is 4 and visited about 20 or so houses. It's was in the high 60's.
