I cancelled two of my kids spring birthday parties. My daughter has a winter party and we will likely not have a party for her. I would love to host a Halloween party/play date in our backyard. DH thinks it is a bad idea during the pandemic. At the same time, he would be fine attending another person’s birthday party. I think he just doesn’t want to host.

Would you attend a Halloween or birthday party in a backyard?

Nope.

But we’re more cautious. Homeschool, limited contact at playgrounds while masked, no contact without a mask.

No. Freaking stop! Holidays are going to be low-key this year. Accept that, get over yourself, and move on.

You can still do stuff; just need to be more cautious. Not everyone is going to be a hermit until next Summer.

Agree. If my DH said no, then I wouldn’t force it.

I would attend provided there were explicit rules: for example, masks must be worn when going inside to use the bathroom.

Lol.

Why the LOL? Masks work at preventing transmission. If you don’t set up some “rule,” then kids will go INSIDE together and if they’re not wearing masks, then it creates an opportunity for covid to spread if a guest is positive.

Covid does not spread as easily outdoors, so masks are not needed.

An outdoor party with just adults who understand social distancing? Yes.

An outdoor party with kids who will be eating and can’t socially distance and sometimes not even keep a mask on? Absolutely not.
