Do you know that some Arab countries celebrate something similar to Halloween👻 but has nothing to do with it ? It’s adorable !😍💓

In the eastern region of Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦and Kuwait🇰🇼 and other countries in east Arabia and close to the Arabic gulf
They have a tradition of celebrating something called “ Gargee'an” every year.

However, unlike Halloween, kids wear traditional clothes and instead of scaring people kids sing traditional songs to receive candy and they also play traditional games !
Here is a link to learn more about it :

I am from the eastern region of Saudi Arabia ، and this custom is part of my culture however, Saudis from other regions aren't familiar with it.

These are adorable and one of my closest friends is a Nurse there, for years and I seek comfort in knowing she is very safe and well paid, in SA. 😊🌷
