The Joy of Halloween
November 5, 2003
By Enid Chen

Crowds of crazy participants from the Joy Children's Language School at the SM City Square

"Trick or treat, smell my feet, give me something good to eat."  A group of small children sang as they went into some shops at the SM City Square to play the "trick or treat" game on the evening of the Halloween Day. These small children wearing costumes and dressed as pixies or ghosts came from the Joy Children’s Language School（佳音英语）.

At the three doors set on the three floors, the school children were tested on their English vocabulary and English songs. Once they passed the tests, they would follow their teachers into the shops with the Jack-o-lanterns hung over the doors. All the shop owners kindly handed out candies to the children on hearing their “trick or treat” song. And none of the children behaved mischievously. It was great fun for all the participants.
