Eat before you Trick or Treat
Sitting down to a healthy and balanced dinner or late-lunch before hitting the neighborhood trick or treat route might not keep us away from the candy completely, but it will help keep portions appropriate.Offer healthy and alternative options
Not every “treat” has to be sugar-filled or edible! Consider handing out small toys like bouncy balls, hacky sacks, and glow sticks. It gives the option of having something tangible, reusable, and adds a little bit of variety to the neighborhood.
Having goodies like Organic Kids O Bars, single serving nut butter packs, and granola on hand works for just about everyone. They’re low-sugar, portable, and offer more nutritional benefits than the traditional lollipops and candy bars.
