We usually stick with traditional candy, but a couple of times we have given out coins (real money) or those certificates you buy at fast food places for a free kids cone or Frosty. Does anyone else give out money? ohhh and Trick Or Treat…love Honest Tea

I’ve given out fruit like bananas, apples, pears, things with skin that are easy to eat on the go. I was skeptical at first, but most of the kids were actually happy to get some fruit.

After running out of candy last year, I gave out Chocolate Chip Chewy Bars that were meant to be in the kids lunches for the next several weeks. As they walked into the lunchroom somberly with no Chewy bars in their lunchboxes, they discovered that the rest of the lunchroom did!

Eyeball high bounce balls is about as unconventional as I’ve gotten. I don’t get trick or treaters so I don’t buy treats for them. I do however send things to my son’s daycare but I send toys instead os candy.
