Halloween Life Hacks to make your trick or treating awesome!

1. Eat a Healthy Meal Before You Head Out

Before the candy frenzy begins, fuel up with a good meal. A hearty dinner with some protein and fiber keeps everyone’s energy up and makes it easier to resist eating too much candy too fast. It’s like trick-or-treat prep—just a bit healthier!

2. Glow Stick Necklaces for the Kiddos

Keep tabs on your trick-or-treaters in the dark by giving them glow stick necklaces or bracelets. Not only are they safer and easier to spot, but they also double as Halloween flair. Kids love anything that glows—it’s like a built-in costume upgrade. You can pick these up at the dollar store!

3. Set a “Max Candy” Limit for After Trick-or-Treating

Before you start raiding the candy bags, set a limit for how many pieces can be enjoyed that night. For our family it was 10 pieces total. It’s a little self-control trick to keep the sugar rush in check and avoid the post-Halloween candy crash. Plus, it makes the stash last longer!
