FAQ on Halloween Treats for Toddlers
You can focus on themed snacks, crafts, and activities. Serve healthy treats shaped like pumpkins, ghosts, or bats, and add in fun games like "pumpkin bowling" or a Halloween scavenger hunt. Toddlers will still feel the excitement without missing the candy.
Some store-bought options can be fine in moderation, but many are high in sugar, artificial colors, and preservatives. If you want to keep it healthier, look for organic fruit snacks, yogurt drops, or mini rice cakes with festive packaging.
Try fruit cups, popcorn, veggie sticks, or homemade muffins made with allergy-friendly substitutes (like dairy-free or nut-free options). These can be a safe and inclusive choice for Halloween parties with multiple toddlers.
