Alternatives to Candy for an Allergy-Safe Halloween
Aside from the 99 allergy-safe candy treats you can fill kids' bags with this coming Halloween, consider giving away small and inexpensive toys and useful bits and bobs, too, such as

  • whistles

  • bouncing balls

  • pencils

  • fancy erasers

  • miniature magnifying glasses

  • plastic jewelry

  • stickerslinks

  • crayons

  • temporary tattoos



Here are more on non-candy alternative treats for Halloween. They're not just allergy safe, they're healthier, too!

What to do with those treats your child can't eat? Here's something you might want to try this year:
The day after Halloween, consider offering to buy back unwanted candy for a few cents a piece.

Even perfectly healthy kids like this idea-they can use the money they "earn" to buy a new toy, book, movie ticket, music or whatever. Also, this lets children with diabetes or allergies get rid of their candy and still have fun.

Parents can donate candy they buy back to a charity or just throw it out.
