Cinderella, Spiderman, ghosts, goblins and witches may all come knocking on your door on Halloween looking for sweets.

This year, consider mixing up the candy bowl with a variety of non-traditional but nutritious goodies such as:

  • Mini rice cereal bites
  • Packages of trail mix or nuts
  • Cereal bars
  • Small boxes of raisins
  • Small packages of dried fruit
  • Sugar-free gum
  • Mini juice boxes
  • Snack-size packages of peanut butter and crackers, graham crackers or oatmeal cookies
  • Or, instead of giving candy to your trick-or-treaters, consider non-food treats like Halloween pencils, pens, stickers, tattoos and spider rings.
