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
