When we asked the kids what their favorite part of Brick-Or-Treat was, they quickly said, “EVERYTHING!” Soon followed by, “The food, especially the food.” Being a foodie myself, I totally have to agree on that. There are some delicious seasonal treats you won’t want to miss, like this Pumpkin Crepe.
Make sure to go find the “Brickzini” too. The kids can ask him whatever question they want about anything or their future and he will come up with the best answers. It was very entertaining to watch and the kids loved it.
