Alternatives to a High-Sugar Halloween

non-sugar-trick-or-treats

When the pumpkins appear on doorsteps and the smell of mulled cider fills the air anticipation runs high for Halloween.  It’s time to trick or treat!  However, with all the sugar from the candy our kids collect it seems more of a trick on our kids teeth than a treat.  This year try something different and hand out tasty but healthy treats to the kids in your ‘hood.  Kids will love them and their parents will thank you in the long run.

Snikiddy Snacks- the all natural cookie snack packs are a healthy but delicious alternative.  Made with whole wheat flour and unrefined cane sugar these tasty trans fat free cookies have no preservatives, artificial colors, flavors or hydrogenated oils.  Take that conventional boxed cookie packs!

Be Like a Ball Game- Pretzels, popcorn, peanuts!  They all come in small, handy snack-sized bags and kids love them.  These high-energy healthy food choices won’t break your bank or any braces either.

Toys, Stickers and Stuff- What kid doesn’t like “stuff”?  Temporary tattoos, small boxes of crayons, colored chalk, stickers, markers and tiny jars of bubbles or play-doh are more enticing than we realize.  It lasts longer too.  Kids typically eat only 20% of their candy before they forget about it or parents throw it out.  Yo-yo’s, funny erasers, fake teeth and silly putty will stick around long after that box of Milk Duds.

The Ultimate Iced Drink for Chocolate Lovers

Who doesn’t love a decadent piece of chocolate? Whether milk or dark, almond-encrusted or  covering gummi bears (my favorite!), I know I can never get enough of it. Now I’ve found even more to love. Even though I’ve always been a huge coffee fan, I recently discovered something that makes this daily indulgence even sweeter — Godiva’s coffee and cocoa line, both of which are delicious as frozen summer treats, as well. There’s the Godiva Chocolate Creme Coffee, the Milk Chocolate Cocoa Canister and the Premium Roast Coffee. This coffee is so good I drink it plain, no help needed. They make great gifts for fellow chocolate lovers, as well.
