IT MAY not be everyone’s cup of tea, but there’s no denying the excitement Halloween extends to kids.
Dressing up in spooky costumes, hunting for lollies, dancing and watching movies while feasting on pizza were just some of the fun activities enjoyed by 40 youngsters who marked All Hallows’ Eve at Warwick last Friday night.
Organised by the Warwick Gymnastics Club, a Halloween sleepover party was decided upon after the disco venue used in previous years was booked out, coach Angie McLaren said.
“I do find it is getting more popular,” Ms McLaren said of the seemingly meteoric rise of the traditionally American custom.
“What’s not to like?”
While the activities on offer were in abundance, in true sleepover form shut eye, it appeared, was not.
“I think there were some still up whispering at 1am,” she laughed.
