Hi I’m Jack and I live in London. This is how we celebrate Halloween at my house.
Jack: “Sally, what are you doing?”
Sally: “This is a pumpkin. I’m making a pumpkin lantern — it’s our Halloween party this evening.”
Mother: “It’s the 31st of October, Jack. Do you want to help?”
“Jack: “Yes, please.”
Mother: “Okay open the cupboard. Take out a candle and some matches. Now put the candle inside the pumpkin.”
Sally: “Look at its face.”
Jack: “Wow! What a great pumpkin lantern!”
We wear fancy dress costumes for a Halloween party.
Jack: “Oh look a black cloak!”
Sally: “Put it on.”
Tom: “I’m a wizard!
Sally: “Here’s a hat. Put it on.”
Tom: “Great a wizard’s hat! Sally what are you wearing?”
Sally: “I’m wearing a sheet; I’m a ghost.”
Tom: “Do you want to wear this mask?”
Sally: “Yes, please.”
Tom: “Scary!”
We have lots of food for the party. We help my mum make the food.
Mother: “What are you making for the party, Sally?”
Sally: ” I’m making some sandwiches. Scary sandwiches!”
Jack: “I’m making scary pizzas, mum.”
Mother: “Oh very scary! Can I put them in the oven?”
Jack: “Yes, please.”
Mother: “What are you going to be at the party?”
Sally: “I’m going to be a ghost.”
Jack: “And I’m going to be a wizard!”
Mother: “It’s 5 o’clock! Put your costumes on!”
Our friends come to our house for the party.
Everyone looks scary!

We play special Halloween games: apple-bobbing is fun.

Witch: “You can do it!”
Hurray! Well done!
Witch: “Now let’s play apples on strings!”
Everyone: “Yeah!”
Witch: “How about you, Saly?”
Ghost: “Yes, please!”
Witch: “Ready, steady, GO!”
Ghost: “I can’t do it.”
Wizzard: “Come on, Sally!”

Trick-or-treaters come to our house on Halloween.
Trick-or-treaters: “Trick-or-treat! Trick-or-treat!”
