When it comes to Halloween, the great British weather can be as unpredictable as a ghost’s mood, especially in October! That’s why a top tip from Poundland is to make sure you’re all set with weather-appropriate clothing for your trick-or-treating adventures.
Whether it's a chilly breeze or an unexpected downpour, layering up is key.

Rules to Follow When Trick or Treating
As you gear up for a night of Halloween fun, it’s important to remember some key rules to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for everyone. First off, Halloween etiquette in the UK suggests that being polite goes a long way - make sure to remind your kids to say “please” and “thank you” when they’re collecting their treats. It’s also a good idea to prepare younger children for the potential jump scares they might encounter along the way. A bit of spooky décor can be thrilling, but it's best to keep things fun and friendly. Encourage your little ghouls to stay on well-lit paths and always check their sweets before digging in. With these rules in mind, you'll ensure a safe and respectful trick-or-treating experience that’s full of Halloween cheer!
