How to give Treats instead of Tricks this Halloween!

Halloween is this Thursday, and it's time to buy candy and other handouts!
What should you get to make every child know they haven't gotten a Trick instead of a Treat?

1) 
Many Kids have allergies or diabetes or other disabilities that keep them from eating many candies given out on Halloween.
So here are some tips on what to buy to please everybody!
 
Create two bowls of candy:
  - One that is peanut butter and chocolate free
     (Ex. Smarties, Lollipops, Pretzels, Popcorn and etc.)
  - One that has peanut butter and chocolate candy.
     (Ex. Kit - Kats, Milky Ways, Rasinets, M n M's, and etc.)

This gives a chance for a child who has an allergy to pick something they can eat. This also gives the Mom less work after trick or treating, when they have to pick out every single piece of candy.

Create One Bowl of Non Candy:
  -One that has little toys that a child can play with.
  -Make sure they will not be a burden in the home, and is actually something someone would use.
     (Ex. Play-Doh, Halloween Socks, Tattoos, Reflectors, and etc.)    
     (Avoid: Plastic  Fangs or other plastic items, anything that can possibly lead to lice, and anything that can possibly set off any sort of common allergy!)

Make sure to notify the child what each bowl contains. Most of the time the mom of the kid will make sure what they pick is something they can eat!
 
2)
Make sure the size you buy, how much you give make sense, how much you buy, and where you live all make sense!
 
Here is a chart to help you:
