5 Alternatives To Halloween Candy




There is no reason why your children need to run the risk of cavities and dental decay. There are plenty of other foods out there that can cause problems for your child’s teeth, but there is no reason for them to be exposed even further. Here are 7 alternatives to having your child fill up on the empty calories of candy and risking their smile.

1.     Go to a movie instead. While you are enjoying a movie with the family, they can be consuming a healthier snack such as butter-free popcorn.
2.     Have a few friends over and enjoy backyard games and fun activities. When it is time for trick or treating, instead of going out enjoy a backyard movie showing, Connect 4 or Yahtzee.
3.     Have your children turn in some of their candy for a toy or a book they have been wanting. This can help encourage them to choose healthier options.
4.     Visit the houses with the teal pumpkins. These are the houses that are giving out items rather than candy for children who have food allergies.
5.     Trade each piece of candy out for a small amount of change. This encourages children to not keep and consume a large amount of candy.
