风雨万圣夜，捣蛋乐不停
The rain doesn’t have to take away the pleasure from your kids’ Halloween this year. Here’s how to prepare if you want them to have a good Halloween night.
You can buy a clear raincoat for your kids. It can show off their costumes while still protecting them from getting totally drenched. But your best choice is probably going to be layering(分层穿). If you know you live somewhere it’s likely to rain, choose a large enough costume, so that your child can wear warm pants and a raincoat underneath. The costume will get wet during trick-or-treating, of course, but your child should stay warm and dry underneath. Illumination(照明) is especially important in the rain, so tie a glow stick around their neck so they can be more easily discovered by you.
If it’s torrential(大雨倾盆的) or unsafe, it’s possible you’ll simply have to move the party indoors. If so, your community will likely have some indoor choices available already. Nursing homes often put on trick-or-treating events. People there love seeing the kids in costumes, the kids get a lot of candy (and attention), and it’s a good chance to let them make more friends. If you need to stay home, there are also a lot of activities for you and your kids to do. If you don’t have trick-or-treating, all the candy you bought goes to your kids, and you can have a movie night with the best treats already on hand.
