Alternative Halloween Treats

If you are like me, and want to bring you toddler trick or treating, but do not want to give them the candy, I put together a fun list of alternative treats besides candy!

While I was walking through Walmart the other day, I was looking to see what else there could be, besides candy to put in some sort of a gift bag. I would love to put together little treat bags this year, but we will not be home to hand out candy to the locals.

So a couple neat things to put in a little gift bag besides candy!

  • Play-Doh – They sell little mini play-doh containers in fun halloween colors.
  • Crayons – If you children are anything like mine, they love to color.
  • Box or bags of trail mix, or raisins.
  • Hot chocolate packets.
  • Animal crackers.
  • Stickers (little packets)
  • School supplies (pencils, erasers, pencil sharpeners)
  • Snack Size pretzels.
  • Change (Yes, Nickels, Dimes, Quarters)
  • Fruit
  • Glow Necklaces, Bracelets, or glow sticks.

All are fun alternatives to Candy!
