Creative Ways to Manage Halloween Candy for Healthier Choices
November 1, 2025 - 07:38
As Halloween approaches, many parents find themselves grappling with the mountain of candy their children collect during trick-or-treating. In a recent episode of “Working It Out,” host Anna Kooiman shared five innovative tips to help parents navigate this sugary season while promoting healthier habits for their kids.
One of the standout suggestions is the concept of the "Switch Witch." This imaginative idea allows children to exchange their excess candy for a fun toy or treat, helping to reduce the temptation of excessive sweets. By incorporating this playful element, parents can turn the candy collection into an exciting opportunity for healthier choices.
Additionally, Kooiman emphasizes the importance of moderation. She encourages parents to set limits on how much candy can be consumed each day and to involve kids in discussions about making healthier snack choices. By engaging children in the process, parents can foster better eating habits that extend beyond Halloween.
These tips not only help manage the post-Halloween candy overload but also promote a balanced approach to treats throughout the year.
