Trick-or-treating is a Halloween tradition where children in costumes go from door to door asking for treats. The custom grew from older traditions in Ireland and Scotland and became popular in the United States in the 1930s and 1940s. Today families also focus on staying safe while walking after dark.
This crossword covers the trick-or-treat night: knocking at the DOORBELL, carrying a BUCKET for CANDY and TREATS, and staying safe with a FLASHLIGHT, a PORCHLIGHT, and the SIDEWALK.
Use this crossword before Halloween to start a safety talk. Ask students to sort the words into "fun" and "safety" groups, then make a class list of trick-or-treat safety rules.
