Halloween is celebrated on 31st October in USA and many other countries around the world.
Children (and adults) wear scary costumes and go to parties or go trick-or-treat from house to house and sing “Trick or Treat Smell my feet Give me something Good to eat”. People give them sweets, candies, nuts and goodies or ……. they suffer a trick! This is how they celebrate Halloween in Britain.

Let’s do the Halloween Freeze Dance!
The following is the song from the Disneyland Halloween parade. Enjoy it!
When the moon is full and bright
On a starry starry night
And the wind is deadly still
Down your spine you feel a chill
Something spooky’s in the air
You look around and no-one’s there
Not a living soul in sight
Are there spirits out tonight?
Then a bell starts to ring
All the ghosts come out to sing!
Can you do the skeleton dance? Try it out!!
