Have you heard of the Trick or Treat Fairy? It's just like the Tooth Fairy! Instead of collecting teeth, though, the Trick or Treat Fairy collects candy in exchange for something else!
What a great way to get the excess candy out of your house! Let the children have all of the fun collecting candy. After you've come home from a busy night of trick or treating spread the candy out and have your child pick his or her favorite treats. When you've determined what is enough for your little goblin to have then bundle the remaining candy. Help your child determine a place where the Trick or Treat Fairy can find the bag of extra goodies. You probably know the rest but I'll keep going! After bedtime, replace the bag of candy with toys, books or money!
This is a great way to get the extra junk food out of your home this Halloween!
Happy Trick or Treating!

p.s. Are you wondering what to do with the left-over candy? If you said "hide it so the kids can't find it" you are wrong! First, they will find it. Second, and more importantly, why on earth do you need to eat it? You don't need it either. Dump it in the garbage!
p.s.s. If you have any other ideas on what to do with excess candy or any special traditions you'd like to share please post a comment.
