First time parent type of question regarding Halloween
Lil man will be just shy of 8 months old whenever Halloween rolls around. We plan to get him a costume, take pictures, and go to some friends' house who have boys that are 4 and 7 to enjoy the evening. I am undecided on what I should do regarding trick-or-treating, though. I mean, it's obvious that he's not old enough to walk, let alone eat candy. And I know he won't remember it anyway. So, what would you do regarding trick-or-treating? Keep in mind that, if option 3 is decided on, we would divvy up any candy lil man gets among the older boys, after the adults pick though it.

just let him soap up a few windows. he's too young for the candy anyway.

Put him in a costume and take him around. The bucket isn't necessary....but if you do take one....only do it for like 10-12 houses and call it good.

Our son was 2 months on his first Halloween, we didn't do the neighborhood thing only because by the time we made it to all the relatives/good friends houses (they all wanted to take pictures etc so it took a while) it was too late for him. In fact we made a pact this year that we aren't spending more than 5 minutes at anyone's house so we can actually let him do some real trick or treating this year(he's 3 now) Also a lot of the local churches have "trunk or treats" which is a good way to get the experience in a confined space/safe environment. We did a couple of those last year & the little man had a really good time.

Just go to a couple family and friends houses, The pictures are the big deal, don't bother with the trick and treating after that unless you are going with other friends.

Personally as a non parent I think you'd look like a broke ass if you brought a bucket with him. I wouldn't do it at all.

As a parent of a 2 year old, I think that too.

I'm thinking it would be tacky. If anyone were to offer candy (but who offers candy to a baby that young), I'd have them stick extra in the older boys' bags.
