Trunk or Treat!
Join us on Friday, October 16, 2026, at our Painesville location

Mark your calendars for a night of Halloween fun at the Little Scholars Trunk or Treat! An evening filled with safe trick-or-treating, costumes, and community celebration.
Bring the whole family and join us for a free community celebration filled with decorated trunks, delicious treats, fresh popcorn, prizes, and plenty of fall fun!
This free event is open to all members of the community, welcoming children ages 6 weeks to 12 years and their families.

A Special Evening for Children, Families, and Our Community

At Little Scholars, we believe some of the most meaningful childhood memories are created when families and communities come together.
Our Trunk or Treat celebration gives children a safe and exciting way to enjoy the season while parents, caregivers, teachers, and local organizations connect outside the classroom.
Whether your family is already part of Little Scholars or you are simply looking for a fun community event, we would love to celebrate with you.
Admission is completely free. We simply ask families to RSVP so our team can prepare enough treats, popcorn, activities, and event materials for everyone.
