Ways to Make Halloween Inclusive for All Children

“The Teal Pumpkin Project is a simple way to make trick-or-treating safer and more inclusive for the one in 13 children living with food allergies, and many others impacted by intolerances and other conditions,” according to FoodAllergy.org. “Placing a teal pumpkin on your doorstep signals that, in addition to candy, you offer non-food trinkets and treats that are safe for all trick or treaters.”

Here are some non-candy ideas to put on your Halloween buying list:

• Glow sticks, bracelets or necklaces
• Halloween pencils and erasers
• Stickers
• Mini notepads
• Bubbles
• Bouncy balls
