If you have kids this is one thing you’ll be happy about in 2020.
As a result of the pandemic classic toys are making a huge comeback this year. Barbie Dolls, Hot Wheels, and Legos are all WAY up in sales. Even Tonka trucks have jumped 250% from last year. The reason for this seems to be that people miss the simpler times of when these toys were popular. Also because parents are sick of seeing their kids stare into screens for hours and hours.
I say good! Bring back all the real toys. Less screens, more Legos.

I’ve always wondered this. You might have too. As we head into Halloween weekend why is it on the 31st?
Way back in the eighth century the Catholic Church made November 1st All Saints Day to honor saints and martyrs. The night before (October 31st) was knowns as All Hallows’ Eve. If you say that really quickly you’ll see why it turned into “Halloween”. Fun!
Happy Halloween Eve!

Every year you dress up with the kids and go knock on doors, ring doorbells, and say “Trick or treat”. But why do we even do this? Where did it all come from?
It all started back in the 1930s. When young boys would spend Halloween going around pranking local farmers. Not a very nice thing to do by the way. In order to try and stop them from pulling these pranks the farmers started to make deals with the boys and offer them “a treat” in exchange for not getting a” trick” pulled on them. It worked!
Hopefully this weekend you don’t get tricked or pranked. I would advise giving out as many treats as you can to avoid all the tricks.
Trick or Treat?! Always treat.
