Halloween is a time when grocery store shelves are stocked with candy to fill trick-or-treat bags, but not every child can enjoy sweets. There are many reasons why a child may not be able to enjoy candy such as food allergies or medical conditions, but they may still want to participate in the festive fun. Consider inclusive trick-or-treating this year by utilizing the list below to see our top 5 kid-approved treats that are still sweet but do not need to be consumed to enjoy!
- Glow sticks – These are a crowd-favorite among kids and parents! Glow sticks are not only a cool accessory to add to any costume, but they are also a great safety tool to be seen on Halloween night!
- Themed pencils or erasers – Having a fun new pencil and eraser that makes your child excited about doing their homework? A win-win!
- Stickers – Whether they are used in the moment to embellish a trick-or-treat bag or used later to decorate a favorite notebook or water bottle, stickers are a fun way to accessorize – minimal clean-up necessary!
- Vampire teeth or spider rings – A reminiscent staple of many parents' Halloweens, these novelty toys are sure to bring ‘scary’ good fun! Parents, remind your children not to walk or play with items such as the vampire teeth in their mouth!
