Forget ghosts and goblins. If you’re health conscious, the truly scary part of Halloween is all that sugar. When little superheroes and princesses come knocking on your door, the last thing you want to do is turn off the porch light and hide behind your curtains. Luckily, you don’t need to compromise your focus on good health. With these unique alternatives to Halloween candy, you might even find your house becoming one of the most popular trick-or-treating destinations on the block.
Alternatives to Halloween Candy: #1. Glow, glow, glow.
For kids, part of the thrill of Halloween night is exploring the neighborhood after dark. For parents, the worry is that their little ones won’t be visible enough. Delight kids and parents at the same time by handing out keychain flashlights, colorful glow sticks, glow stick bracelets, and glow-in-the-dark stickers. Trick-or-treaters will love lighting up the night with these creative Halloween treats.
Alternatives to Halloween Candy: #2. Masters of disguise.
Get into the spirit of Halloween by handing out dress-up items. Temporary tattoos can be fun, especially if they’re Halloween-themed. When you pass out costume jewelry, pirate eye patches, colorful plastic sunglasses, head boppers, or vampire fangs, trick-or-treaters get to continue the thrill of dressing up in wacky outfits.
Alternatives to Halloween Candy #3. Things that go bump in the night.
Finally, don’t forget that spookiness should be the main focus of Halloween night. Put together tiny Halloween-themed bags filled with creepy offerings, including rubber spiders, fake eyeballs, and miniature plastic bats. Throw in some Halloween confetti for added cuteness. These spooky prizes offer the kind of fun that will last much longer than a sugar high.
