Summary: Instead of handing out candy, why not consider handing out non-candy treats, which are a great option for kids with food allergies, celiac disease, and type 1 diabetes. (Of course, some candy is okay!)

I don’t deny my child with diabetes candy. All things in moderation. Let kids enjoy childhood rites of passage such as haunting the neighborhood on All Hollow’s Eve.
So for parents looking for some alternatives for class parties, to hand out to trick-or-treaters, or to swap out for some of your child’s giant stash, here are some non-candy ideas that my kids have liked:
Mini Play-doh (always a hit among the preschool set!)
Spooky tattoos
Skeleton stickers
Glow sticks
Bouncy balls shaped like eyeballs
Black, orange, and green rubber bracelets
Spider rings
Pumpkin rings
Mini pumpkins
Rubber bats
Themed pencils
Ghost pencil toppers
Spooky erasers
Monster finger puppets
Rubber skeletons
Plastic bugs
Mini notebooks
Coins
