This is Halloween, everybody make a<br />
scene...<br />
The lead up to Halloween is my favorite<br />
time of year. The weather turns colder, and I<br />
can finally dig out my warm coat and scarf.<br />
Pumpkins are suddenly available everywhere,<br />
and the world takes on a sudden orange hue<br />
as the leaves start to fall from the trees.<br />
Of course this time of year can also be dangerous;<br />
every year there are news stories of<br />
things going wrong while out Trick or Treating,<br />
or of youngsters getting a little too carried<br />
away with the spirit of the season. That’s<br />
why I’ve included some top tips to keep your<br />
little ones safe while out Trick or Treating (26).<br />
If the Halloween season becomes a bit too<br />
much for your twins, then we’ve also included<br />
advice for dealing with night terrors (22), and<br />
the rules for assigning twins chores (18) —<br />
just in case they need a bit of a distraction!<br />
We’ve also got some big news about the<br />
magazine... for the first time ever, we’re giving<br />
it away FREE! See page 23 for more information<br />
about how to claim your free subscription.<br />
Finally, the team here at TWINS Magazine<br />
would like to wish you a very spooky Halloween.<br />
Enjoy the longer nights — it’ll be Christmas<br />
before you know it!<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Laura Cunningham<br />
