Trick or Treat!

Halloween is a time for children to dress up in their favorite costume and go door to door looking for sweet treats! Ever since my nieces were born I have enjoyed going trick or treating again. I remember as I got older Halloween seem to become less exciting until my nieces arrived! I was able to dress them up and take part in their travels from door to door. Just seeing their excitement made me remember why I had once enjoyed this holiday so much.

Grammar Point: Plurals are an important part of grammar. When something is plural it tells us that there is more then one. For example the plural of treat is treats there is more then one piece of candy.
Make the rest of the vocabulary words into plurals.
