Getting It Together For Hallowe’en

Getting It Together For Hallowe’en: Less Is More Even When It Comes to Candy

Isn’t it interesting how all year long we teach our kids not to talk to strangers and never take candy from someone you do not know, then Halloween comes along all the rules change? No wonder some kids are confused!

Getting It Together has an exciting approach to having a fun, safe and organized Halloween.

Host a Halloween Party on Halloween Night

Creative Halloween Costume Ideas

Ask the children to choose items from around the house to create their own costumes. This will help in clearing the clutter, save you money as you won’t be buying a costume will sit in the closet for another year collecting dust. Offer a prize to the child wearing the most recyclable or reused items.

Halloween Food

Think up a theme for the food. For example, all green food. Just think of how great everyone will feel after eating healthy food instead of all that candy (and you won’t have to be hiding it from your kids for the next 6 months). Be sure to have some healthy green treats like green frosting on top of a healthy muffin.

Halloween Party Activities

Organize some games and storytelling at your party. Just think of the impact this will have on all the guests as opposed to running around the neighbourhood in the cold and rain.

Halloween Giving

This is the perfect time of year to teach your children about giving. Let them pick an organization or charity and everyone who comes to the party can donate to it. All ages can participate in this with a little help from you.

Less is more even when it comes to candy.
