If you’re new to parenting, the term Trunk or Treat may be unfamiliar. This is an organized trick or treating event using the trunks of people’s cars. Parents, kids, and teachers drive to a designated parking area. They park their cars. pop their trunks to reveal a Halloween cache of candies, and invite the costumed children to walk from car to car, picking up goodies from each trunk.
