Safety experts recommend using flashlights on Halloween to light the way for trick-or-treaters and to alert drivers to their presence.

But conventional flashlights use batteries – which, as most greenies know, aren’t such a treat for our planet.

Although using rechargeable batteries is a great, green option, eventually, they too will need to be dumped.

Enter people-powered flashlights: a fun and eco-friendly option. Some you shake, some you crank, and some you squeeze.

We’re nuts about these sweet, squeezable flashlights from www.GreenPartyGoods.com (and they cost just $8!). The owner, Carole, sent my girls two to try and they’ve been the holed up in dark corners of the house playing with them ever since!

We have a hunch these are Halloween accessories your kiddies will love  – and your Mother (Earth) will be grateful for.
