Halloween in Oklahoma City (Edmond, Holdenville: credit, relocating, travel)

[Georgia Bound]

Hello, I was just wondering if anyone had some recommendations for Halloween activities for a young toddler on the 31st of October. I am relocating to Ga in a few weeks from Ca, and will be traveling thru Oklahoma City on the 31st. I am looking for something safe for a young 3 year old to participate in and be safe while doing so.

I think it depends on the neighborhood. Overall, that's not done as much anymore because there are so many freaks out there. In our neighborhood here in Texas they will be out and about one Halloween, and then the next you won't even have one trick or treater. I personally love it. I plan to dress up my yard with all kinds of "scary" stuff this Halloween.

We participate in the downtown merchants Halloween in Holdenville. It is really a lot of fun, and really better in case of bad weather for the kids and parents. Last year we had about 1000 trick or treaters. That was enough to make me break a sweat at the end of October.

Won't it be nice when it's Halloween? Fall is not far away!
