DD has been fighting something... she doesn't have a fever, but she is clingy, lethargic and her appetite hasn't been normal for the last few days. She has been well enough to go to school, but she isn't herself at all.
Tonight is trunk or treat at my nephew's school. This was the only Halloween event that we were plannig on doing with DD, but now I am wondering if we should just keep her home...
So, would you let your kid trick or treat or whould you keep them home?
I am going to wait and see how she is when I get home today before deciding.
Re: WWYD: re sick kids and halloween
We live in the middle of nowhere and have never had a single trick or treater.
In my heart I think it is probably best to keep her home, but her Dad is SO excited. Halloween was always a big deal for us pre-baby. We didn't do anything last year, but DH was really looking forward to taking DD this year. I think I am more upset about him being disappointed, that probably sounds silly.
I would stay home.
If she's better on Sunday, dress her up for the day and go shopping or something or find a mall/shopping center that's doing an event.
Cold weather doesn't make you sick heheh If you really want to go bundle her up really well and try to cover her face as much as possible.
However, that being said, i'd probably stay home. I understand the disappointment bc you get hepped up to do something and a stupid cold stops you. I guess it's part of our "new" life we signed up for.
I agree. I know that cold weather won't make her sick, but she'll be tired and possibly cranky and it's probably better if she is sleeping or taking it easy.
oh no!
