The trick-or-treat dilemma: Handing out candy vs. other treats
60Giving gifts to Strangers!
Well, Candy and Money seem to be the most sought out goodies. But what you pass out is really up to you. These are gifts! So I feel that no one should dictate what kind of gifting that you will be giving!
If you know a few of your neighbors as friends or have friends and family that will visit your house. You might want to get a few nicer items just for them! Again it is really up to you!
Ideas of things to Pass Out!
I have seen a number of many different things passed out through the years! Things like:
- Flavor Ice ( not frozen ) they take them home and pop them in the freezer!
- Religious Tracks
- Coins *Money*
- Every Kind of candy that the store carries
- Popcorn Balls
- Miniature toys
- Cold drinks being passed out in Dixie cups * This was back in the sixties I doubt that anyone does this any more!*
- Carmel Apples
- Chips & Pretzels
- Apples
- Stickers
- Toothbrushes from a Dentist
- Juice Boxes
- Little Hugs
- Microwavable Popcorn Packs
- Pens/Pencils
Sealed Wrappers
Any food items need to be in a seal packages with no punctures or tears. Any signs that it may have already been opened. And the parents will toss it in the trash.
Individually sealed packages are very easy to handle and can be passed out very quickly!

Glad that you like it Chuck!
You have some nice ideas there. I love the idea of giving them toothbrushes, lol!
You talk about perhaps reserving nicer treats for the kids that you know, but my problem is that I can never recognise them!
HAHAHAHA,, I can see your point! Well maybe you can recognise their parents!
It's fairly cheap to get penns and pencils personalized. With School underway at treat giving time you can get pens and pencils with uplifting messages or ads for your church youth department or clubs and events for kids on them. the children get a writing utinsil they can use and a message they may take to heart.
