Dear Contact First Name,
Children love Halloween and with all the costumes
and goodies, who wouldn't? However, all the yummy treats can disrupt their
healthy diets. Here are a few tips for a healthy Halloween.

The Great Pumpkin is Coming...
|
|
Does the Great Pumpkin visit your house? Every year the Great Pumpkin sneaks into
our house Halloween night and scoops up all the candy and leaves
a present in its place. My boys can hardly wait to see what they'll get
and quickly forget all about the candy. You can use any alternative to the Great Pumpkin like the Halloween Fairy -- whatever gets your child excited and full of anticipation will make it easier to say goodbye to their candy.

Let family be the focus of the holiday
|
|
A time to share and grow...
Focus on traditions and maybe make some new ones! Spending more quality time together as a
family is what the holidays are all about. Read Halloween books, decorate the house, do an art project,
decorate each other up as mummies and then have a race. That's what your kids will remember most about Halloween!
