Halloween looks a little different for every child, and that’s okay. 🩵For some kiddos, the costumes, crowds, knocking on doors, loud noises and excitement of Halloween night can simply be too much. For others, a disability or other circumstance may mean traditional trick-or-treating just isn’t an option.
So this year, we wanted to make a little space for them, too. 🎃
On October 30th from 4–6 PM, Georges River Markets will be hosting our Teal Pumpkin Party at the Georges River Fire Hall. A quieter, more comfortable little Halloween evening created especially for children with disabilities, sensory sensitivities and other needs that may make traditional trick-or-treating difficult.
There’s no pressure here. 🩵
Costumes are completely optional. Come dressed up, come in comfy clothes, come exactly as you are. Stay for a little while or stay for the whole evening. The goal is simply to give these kiddos a chance to experience some of that Halloween magic in a way that feels good for them. 🎃✨
And this is where we need our community. 🫶
We’ll have tables set up throughout the fire hall, and community members, families, businesses and organizations are welcome to join us and hand out treats to the children. We’d love to see those tables filled with familiar faces from our community.
📅 October 30th
🕓 4:00–6:00 PM
📍 Georges River Fire Hall
This evening is specifically being held for children with disabilities, sensory needs or other circumstances that make traditional Halloween activities difficult.
