Every Halloween parents everywhere face a daunting problem: what to do with all that candy???
Here's how we handle Halloween in our family.
Our children collect obscene amounts of candy trick-or-treating. When they return home, they may eat 3 or 5 (there are often negotiations) pieces of candy right then. I am aware that they snitch candies while trick-or-treating or even back at home. I am just trying to contain the deluge. I also try to steer them away from what I consider to be the most disgusting candy because it pains me to watch them eat it.
All the rest of the candy gets left near the fireplace for the Switch Witch, usually right in their trick-or-treat bags.
