BOB THE CANADIAN
About this episode

It is almost October 31st and I thought it would be a good time for an English lesson about Halloween. This is an evening at the end of October where some children in some countries go house to house and as for candy.

In this English lesson I'll explain what it is, how it is celebrated, and what activities happen on this evening.

In this free English class you'll learn words and phrases like pumpkin, jack o'lantern, trick or treating, mask, costume, and more!

I hope you enjoy this English lesson about Halloween!

Note: This is the audio portion of a Youtube English lesson which you can watch right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EuNlBsfvrj0 or find by searching Youtube for, "Bob the Canadian Halloween"
