English: Apple bobbing, also known as bobbing for apples, is a game often played at Halloween. The game is played by filling a tub or a large basin with water and putting apples in the water. Because apples are less dense than water, they will float at the surface. Players (usually children) then try to catch one with their teeth. Use of arms is not allowed, and often are tied behind the back to prevent cheating.
Español: Morder la manzana es un juego que habitualmente tiene lugar en Halloween. En el juego se llena de una bañera o un lavabo grande con agua y se ponen dentro las manzanas. Debido a que las manzanas son menos densas que el agua, flotan en la superficie. Los jugadores (generalmente niños) tratan de atrapar una con sus dientes. El uso de las manos no se permite, ya que se atan a la espalda para evitar trampas.
