The idea of Halloween is sort of a US imported event in the bigger towns and cities in Mexico. The kids told us that in Zacango, on the last day of the Day of the Dead activites the kids go around and ask for the things from the alters but they don't usually dress up. Well, we have a whole suitcase full of dress-up clothes so some of the kids came and dress up and we went door-to-door "trick or treating" for the items on the alters: bread, tlaxcalis, fruit, mole chicken, etc. It was great fun!
