After the school parade in the afternoon, if your school is still continuing that tradition, it will seem like an eternity for your children before it gets dark, and they can go out to Trick-or-Treat with their friends. With big smiles on their faces, they will run up and down the streets, knock on doors, and politely scream, “Trick or Treat!” After a brief thank you, the children will rush on to the next home, all aglow with festive decorations.

Tips to Finding the Best DC, MD & VA Neighborhoods to Celebrate Halloween
What to Look For!
1. Look for neighborhoods that have the homes close together since they are also ideal for maximum candy collection.
2. Find neighborhoods that a ton of children. The socially distanced group of kids will make for a truly exciting candy-packed evening.
3. It used to be key to look for neighborhoods that hosted a party, gathering place, or parade prior to Trick-or-Treating. This wonderful tradition gets all the kids together for some food and fun before they're let loose in one enormous pack. Of course, with COVID many neighborhoods are making adjustments or calling off these neighborhood events completely. Check with local website links before you head out.
