How do you talk to a 6-yo child who is scared shitless of Halloween. Things are ramping up at school as we move closer to the day with skeleton-themed lessons. It's the skeletons that freak her out the most. They also celebrate the Day of the Dead in Spanish class, and she comes home in tears on the days that they talk about dead family members and look at pictures of altars and see skeletons dancing (not sure if that's part of it, but she's reported that she's seen pictures of it). We are out of town on the 31st, so that helps her to not have to deal with trick or treating (hates that, too).
Any advice?
