We can all remember the excitement that led up to Halloween night as kids. What costume would you wear? Would you dress up as a group with your friends? Where would you go trick-or-treating?
Needless to say, that excitement and anticipation doesn't always carry into adulthood, as the focus shifts from your costume selection to what your kids will be wearing instead. In fact, dressing your child up can be as fun and easy as turning them into their favorite zombie with just a few dabs of face paint.
And while decking your kids out for a spooktacular good time can be entertaining, if your child is too young to appreciate the holiday, it might be more fun to just spend the night in snacking on some homemade Halloween treats.
That's exactly what mom Esther Anderson seems to have in mind when her husband Thad asks when they'll be going trick-or-treating for Halloween. "She's like two," Esther responds. "She doesn't even know what's going on." With this response comes the greatest display of dad genius I've seen in a long time.
"Exactly," he says, "then WE keep all the candy… She doesn't even care."
Mom and Dad hop up and take their adorable little family door-to-door around their neighborhood, their eyes growing wider with each piece of candy dropped into baby Ellia's bucket.
However, I have to say the cutest part of the video comes at the end as Esther and Thad are drooling over their spoils. Keep a sharp ear to what Thad says at :54, you won't want to miss it!
