Which of these holidays does your children enjoy more? I remember growing up, I liked Christmas more, I would much rather get lots of cool presents, and be nice and warm and cozy, with all my family, I loved the excitement. I enjoyed getting lots of candy too, and dressing up, but I didn't like getting cold, or being scared. Especially when my dad made me go into the haunted house, and I cried, had to ask for my money back, I couldn't do it. How about you? or your kids? Share with me.

Yes Christmas is good. That is a shame, it is a wonderful thing to be a part of. Watching your parents check every piece of candy for little needle holes. Fun and great times.

In Philippines Halloween is the chance to have rest because it's holiday and time to visit a relatives who past away but some people do the trick or treat

Ok. Here it is for the kids to trick or treat, when adults do it they are frowned upon.

Christmas has always been my favorite holiday and I don't think that it has ever been because of the gifts. Instead, the reason that I've always loved Christmas is because of the fact that we were always able to spend a lot of time with my extended family. You see, I grew up in a family where we lived in a different state than my grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins and the time that I got to spend with them was something that I've always treasured.

That is the magic of Christmas, you get to see all family, and spend good times with them.

This is a tough one for me. I am a huge lover of all things Halloween. I am also a long standing fan of Christmas! I think Christmas is better with family and friends, if you are single, it's great, but it's really a family/friend kind of holiday. I love to also dress up and such for Halloween. Each holiday has it's own merits. One has the chill and frost of an icy Christmas window that frames a beautifully decorated tree. The other has memories of mom making me my halloween outfit, and feeling proud because I knew mine would be the absolute best, going out and showing it off while trick or treating. So, that being said. I really can't make up my mind as to which holiday is the best one. I just know I can't stand the 4th of July, lol. Not too crazy about that one, and I don't know why, :D ...
