Bags of candy line the shelves of stores when Halloween comes around This is normally the go-to option for adults expecting trick-or-treating children throughout the night. Sugar-rich sweets are freely given to kids, energizing them for a night driven by sugar.
Keeping the neighborhood trick-or-treaters interested while preventing overexposure to sweet snacks poses a challenge. Sugarfree candy is always an option, but healthy snacks and little toys are satisfying replacements.
Chocolates and sweets annually go on sale during Halloween, raising consumption. Cheap, yet fun, knick-knacks and Halloween-themed treats are also available for low prices, often offered in bulk at supply stores. Some suggestions for substitutes are:
- stickers
- ghoul eraser tops
- glow bracelets
- temporary tattoos
- plastic jewelry
- bubbles
- juice
- pretzels
- 100-calorie snacks
- raisins
