#WellnessWednesday - Healthy Alternatives to Halloween Candy

 
Halloween is around the corner and while you may have already stocked up on candy to distribute this year perhaps you are still in the market for some other, healthy alternatives. See some of our recommendations below sure to make this year’s visitors leave not feeling tricked - but treated:
  • Individually Wrapped Snacks - From Goldfish, to pretzel sticks, to crackers and cheese packs - there are an assortment of lunch box snacks that can double as Halloween handouts! Granola bars, trail mix, pudding cups - whichever you decide just be sure to choose foods that are individual wrapped.
  • Coloring Page and Crayons - Purchase a Halloween coloring book and a box of crayons. Tear out the pages of the book and package each page with two crayons by folding around the paper and adding a ribbon to secure!
  • Dollar Store Trinkets - Plastic spider rings, glow sticks, temporary tattoos, plastic vampire teeth, spooky stickers - the list is endless. Round up a bunch for trick or treaters to choose from!
  • Boxed Juices or Water - Mini bottles of water and natural juice boxes can always be appreciated. Consider how thirsty kids can get while running around trick or treating, these are sure to be a welcomed treat.
