Learn Spooky French for Halloween
My three year-old and I took a walk through the neighborhood this evening, playing a game of “I Spy Something Spooky.” The pumpkins, witches, and “scary stuff” are starting to pop up everywhere. Although I love Halloween, my preschooler gets frightened pretty easily. We’re slowly getting used to the decor so that the big night of trick-or-treating doesn’t completely freak out my little pirate. Big Brother Darth Vader, on the other hand, is fearless. Especially with his trusty lightsaber.
I grew up with this very American holiday, but it’s still new and exciting to the kids. And it’s also new and exciting in France. Every year I’m amazed by how l’Halloween it’s catching on as a new French celebration.
