It looks like it’s going to be a cold Halloween this year… If you’re a parent/guardian who isn’t a fan of long walks in chilly Winnipeg weather, then perhaps you’ll want to bring your kids some of Winnipeg’s safe Trick-or-Treating options. The best part? You can get some early Christmas shopping done at the same time!


Various malls throughout the city will be offering Safe Trick-or-Treating where kids can collect candy by going store-to-store instead of door-to-door. Parent’s have peace of mind that their kids are safe from traffic and the grueling Winnipeg weather.
