list of non-traditional halloween treat ideas
Oct, 17 Holidays/Occasions
When I was a kid, my favorite thing to get on Halloween night was a mini Snickers bar. Second to that, any kind of chocolate. I remember spreading out my treat bag all over my bed so I could “organize” my loot. I would usually find a couple of apples and a couple of homemade treats such as Rice Krispy Treats or popcorn balls wrapped up in cling wrap mixed in with the more tooth-decay producing treats. Today, people do not give food that is not individually wrapped from a store shelf, but if you are opposed to giving candy, there are still plenty of options.
- pencils
- mini Play Doh
- little plastic spiders or insects
- mini bubbles
- bookmarks
- stickers or tattoos
- theme bandages
- “jewels”
- halloween magnets (you can even make these yourself)
- fun shoelaces
What are some of your unique ideas for Halloween treats?

My son’s favorite trick or treat was remarkable a travel toothbrush. He thought it was great and I finally got him to WANT to brush his teeth at the end of Halloween.
We always add either something reflective to put on their costume or glow sticks and toss in a toothbruth!! This year, we are making Halloween Poppers filled with pencils, glowies, toothbrushes and whatever else will fit from the discount store!
Very great ideas!
My wife and I have enjoyed giving out the glow bracelets and necklaces. The kids love it and we feel good that they might just be a little more safe running around the streets in the dark. Another fun item is the flashing ear-rings or flashing vampire teeth!
These ideas will make kids’ dentists happy too.
Tattoos are fun!
Great ideas!
Thanks for stopping by to visit!
Hi! I’m just commenting in response to a comment you made on my blog. I was totally intimidated by making bread until about a year ago. I found this post:

And I’ve been making our bread ever since. I use the smallest proportions she lists and it’s super yummy! It’s turned out almost every time. When it gets really cold outside I put a little extra yeast in, I found it works better that way for some reason.
Good luck!
i gave out halloween bouncy balls last year, i think if i get my act together i’ll order glow-bracelets this year. i really like oriental trading for this stuff.
cute ideas… but I can hardly think about them on account of the fact that I’m still hyper-ventilating over “100 days until Christmas!” WOW! :)
My kids often come home with those plastic glow in the dark necklaces. They are always a huge hit.
I have a stockpile of tattoos and individually wrapped Halloween Tastycakes hidden away and ready for the big night.
