We have to teach the children that it is not permissible for us as Muslims to celebrate these festivals or be part of them in school plays etc as these are part or their religion and ours doesn’t allow us to participate in such as it doesn’t allow us to eat pork.

What I like to know is, is it permissible for kids, especially aged under 10 to consume any candy can offered to them, as they are offered by non muslims, and if we go their way, we become one of them as mentioned by Prophet Muhammed [Sal]
