Trick or What?!?!

I think my life has finally calmed down enough to start posting hear again. I've been thinking a lot about what to give out for Halloween and what to do with the mounds of candy my nearly three-year-old daughter is sure to bring home.



I don't want to be the mom in the neighborhood that hands out boxes of raisins or toothbrushes, but I can't bring myself to buy a giant bag of candy to push on the neighbor kids. I'm thinking of going the toy route. I might purchase the mini playdough packs or something. Any ideas? I wish it weren't so creepy to actually make something to give away.



Have any of you found successful ways to keep your kids happy while preventing them from ingesting gobs of high-fructose corn syrup? I've heard of letting your kids eat as much candy as they want on Halloween night and then having the "candy fairy" come take the candy in the night and replace it with a toy.
