Took my tiny child with me to the Halloween store. Walked in and immediately realized it would be a terrible mistake.
They had those jumpscare machine things everywhere, lots of spooky noise machines, scary looking animatronic things, crazy decorations, just the whole 9 yards and then some. I immediately went to turn around and leave when I heard a noise coming from my arms.
My one year old child who gets scared if we coughโฆ. was laughing.
She makes this preciousย โeee!โ sound and starts vibrating when she sees something she really likes, usually an animal or a balloon, and she points right at the big zombie thing by the door and does that. I carry her in past a huge 10 ft tall Pennywise inflatable, and she smacks me to tell me to stop so she can look. She ponders him for a moment, and his glowing light-up eyes, then points at his hand and shoutsย โBEEM!โ Which is her word forย โballoon.โ She made us stand there under Pennywise for at least 3 minutes, which is a really long time for a one-year-old.
Then, she begs to get down, so I let her loose and she just books it all over the store. Finds the creepy demonic looking babies and shoutsย โBABY!โ then gets this confused look on her face and tries to wipe theย โdirtโ off their faces. Decides itโs not worth it, goes and picks up a severed hand decoration, hands it to me and saysย โhand.โ Yes, my dear, it is a hand. And yes, that severed foot hasย โtoes,โ youโre very right.
Finds the wigs, runs down the aisle shoutingย โhair! hair!โ and grabbing her own sparse little headfuzz so hard I think sheโs going to rip it all out. Then she found the speaker in the wall that was blaring Monster Mash and she demanded I pick her up so we couldย โDANSSSEโ. But she got distracted by the big spider decorations, which she christened as dogs by running toward them and barking.
She ran up and down the aisles of costumes touching the fabric and making her littleย โtss tss tssโ giggle that she does when sheโs having Much Too Good a Time. Every so often sheโd stop, look back to make sure I was there, and point at something and vibrate with her aggressiveย โEEEE!โ
A man turned a corner wearing one of the creepy latex masks. He immediately started apologizing to me, sayingย โIโm so sorry, Iโm looking for my friend, I donโt want to scare her.โ Meanwhile my child is standing there looking up at him with the most confused look on her face. Not scared, just confused, like he is so dumb and she canโt figure out why he would want to make that stupid face for so long. But he rounds another corner all hunched over, she flaps her arms and sighs, and takes off to go scream at the creepy lawn decorations.
When it was time to go, nothing could convince her to come to me willingly, so I had to promise her one last look at the balloon man while I picked her up against her will. Pennywise placated her, and we left the store with a smile on her chubby little cheeks. She demanded we wait and watch the big inflatable-flailing-arm-tube-man out front, the one that was bright orange and had a jack-o-lantern face, and she bounced and wiggled and danced in my arms despite its fan being louder than the loud motorcycles that scare her on our walks. She waved bye-bye to it as we left for the car.
Basically, that was the cutest thing thatโs ever happened to me in my life, and itโs so crazy how so many things are culturally taught and kids are justโฆ immune to that. All she saw was bright colors and things she recognized and could name, in a place she could explore and touch. She has no concept of clowns being scary or zombies being A Thing or what constitutesย โcreepyโ andย โspookyโ andย โgross.โ To her, a severed arm with gore hanging out the end doesnโt represent pain or violence, itโs justย โarm,โ and itโs got some weird stuff on the end thatโs funny colors. Theyโre just things, thereโs no context for it.
The world is weird and beautiful and itโs so cool to see it through the eyes of someone who is so New to this planet and hasnโt been influenced by society and culture yet.
