Halloween Treats

Halloween brings with it the joy of trick or treating for children.  But some children can’t have nor want all the sugary chocolaty treats that are common place during the Halloween season. Discover some amazing alternatives to candy for this years Halloween treats. 

 

Teal Pumpkins

A home that displays a teal pumpkin indicates that this home is giving out non-food or non-candy treats.  This is important to those families with kids who have allergies to nuts, dairy, gluten, chocolate and more.

Teal Pumpkin Halloween Treats

Teal pumpkin homes give out alternatives to candy for Halloween treats.  They may give out art supplies, play doh, small toys or stickers.  

Halloween 

Halloween is a great time for kids to dress up and let their imagination and creativity run wild. Some kids will invest weeks in creating the perfect costume.

Halloween Costumes

You can opt to purchase a Halloween costume online or DIY your own costume creation.  One of my favorite things about Halloween is all the unique costumes we see. 

DIY Halloween Costumes

One year my son was an astronaut and another year he was a scarecrow and we had great fun putting the costumes together.

Blue Halloween Buckets

If you see someone carrying a blue Halloween treat bucket or one is displayed in a home it indicates a person with Autism. 

Blue Buckets

Blue buckets give the individual big or small the opportunity to participate in the Halloween fun.  They may not wear a whole costume, mask or makeup due to sensory issues but the want to be included in the fun. Please be kind.  Show grace and include all children this Halloween season. 

Halloween Parties

Halloween is a great time to dress up and have a class party or get together with friends.  Whether you are bobbing for apples, playing games or stocking up on treats.  Some people go all out on the Halloween decorations and the carving of pumpkins.

 

Halloween Trick or Treating

Trick or treating is the main event, walking the neighborhood and knocking on doors, or maybe your local mall does a trick or treat event. Our local downtown business association puts on a great trick or treating event for the kids. Remember your teal pumpkins and blue buckets.
