Have you seen teal pumpkins around the neighborhood? The Teal Pumpkin Project is a safe way for children with food allergies to enjoy trick-or-treating. By painting a pumpkin teal and placing it outside of your home, you indicate to trick-or-treaters that you have non-food treats available for kids with food allergies!
Not sure what kind of non-food items you can give to trick-or-treaters? Here are a few ideas:
Non-Food Treats:
- Glow Sticks
- Pencils
- Bubbles
- Halloween Erasers
- Halloween Pencil Toppers
- Mini Slinkies
- Whistles
- Kazoos
- Bouncy Balls
- Finger Puppets
- Coins
- Spider Rings
- Vampire Fans
- Mini Notepads
- Bookmarks
- Stickers
- Stencils
