An Alternative to Passing out Candy on Halloween

Every Halloween we think about healthy treats to dole out, but raisins don’t always appeal to kids, and which Princess or Pirate is going to eat an apple over a chocolate bar?

Take a trip to your local dollar store for a cornucopia of little goodies, jacks, superballs, decks of cards, rubber spiders, toys, books, and art supplies.
