| Holiday

Looking for some fun healthier Trick or Treating options?

Here are a few ideas:

  • Temporary tattoos or spooky stickers
  • Super bouncy balls Colorful Pencils
  • Glow sticks
  • Rings or bracelets

For candy try:

  • Sugar-free gum
  •  Fat free candy like fruit smacks/gummies, SweetTarts, Smarties, Twizzlers, Tootsie Rolls, or Skittles
  • Lower-fat chocolate candies like York Peppermint Patties, 3Musketeers, or Junior Mints
  • Try giving out the smallest size of candy (the smaller the bar/package, the smaller the portion)

On Halloween night:

  • Eat a healthy meal before trick-or-treating
  • Travel in groups and/or with an adult.
  •  Give children flashlights for added visibility
  • Accessorize with glow-in-the-dark necklaces or bracelets or use reflective tape
  • Check collected items before allowing children to eat them
