Very soon, a lot of little kiddos will visit your door. Be open minded. The child who is grabbing more than one piece of candy might have poor fine-motor skills or may be hungry. The child who takes forever to pick out one piece of candy might have motor planning issues. The child who does not say "trick or treat" or "thank you" might be painfully shy or non-verbal. If you cannot understand their words, they may struggle with developmental apraxia of speech. The child that doesn't answer when you talk to them, may have a hearing impairment. The child who looks disappointed when he sees your bowl might have a life-threatening allergy. The child who isn't wearing a costume at all might have autism or not be able to afford one. Be kind, be patient, smile, and try to understand. It's everyone's Halloween. Make each child feel special and make their parents feel good by making a big deal of their special child.
