When running errands with your preschooler, practice saying no to some of the candy offerings that you encounter. And when at home, choose flavorful, healthy Halloween-inspired treats over sugary sweets!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Traditional treats for Halloween<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Even though candy seems ubiquitous with the holiday, traditional treats for Halloween often focused on fruits and vegetables common during harvest season. For example, annual apple harvests occur at the same time of year, and many long-standing Halloween traditions and treats involve apples, from bobbing for apples to eating candied or caramel ones.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Healthy treats for preschoolers<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You can prepare easy, healthy Halloween treats with minimum fuss.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ghoulish Snackers<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Enlist your preschooler to help you turn a standard vegetable snack platter into a Halloween ghoul&#8211;such as a skeleton, a ghost, or a Frankenstein monster. Use black olives or cucumber slices to stand in as eyes and a nose, and include a bowl of tasty dressing on the side for dipping. Admire your handiwork together before enjoying the first tasty bite!<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Spooky Creatures<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Let your creativity loose by creating spooky Halloween creatures, such as spiders and snakes, from a bowl of black olives or black grapes. If helpful, secure pieces together with small toothpicks, but make sure that little snackers know to remove them later! You can also use small crackers, pretzel sticks, and cream cheese or peanut butter to make creepy crawlies and friendly fall animals, such as owls and cats. Experiment with your designs, and let the process be part of the fun!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you enjoyed this blog and want to read more, click below for our blog from last month!<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/kidsrkids.com\/tomball\/2020\/09\/09\/helping-your-preschooler-with-reading\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Helping Your Preschooler with Reading<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Want to learn more about<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.kidsrkids21tx.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Kids \u2018R\u2019 Kids Learning Academy of Tomball<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> located in Tomball, Texas?
