Work at Home Grandmothers

Those of us that work at home will be around when the trick or treaters come to the door, in fact, maybe everyone will be home as I think Halloween is on a weekend this year!  Some may find those knocks at the door to be a bit frustrating if you are trying to get work done, but if you plan on the day, and plan to enjoy it, it can be fun!  I miss the days when my children were young enough to go trick-or-treating…but still enjoy the experience of having many come to the door throughout the day from my neighborhood.

I like healthy things, and enjoy finding healthy treats for kids, right now there’s a Trick or Treat Me campaign going on that promotes good nutrition for kids, and doing so in an environmentally friendly way. Kids are expecting to get candy, and lots of it, on Halloween…so it’s hard to disappoint them by giving them what you might consider as being healthy that they will toss into the trash can.

So when the little ones come to the door and say “trick or treat”, or maybe in their little childlike way “Twick or Tweet Me” consider giving something different…everyone loves Chocolate, kids like Chocolate Milk, how about small drink containers of chocolate milk that do not have to be refrigerated so they will last along with your children’s other goodies for a while unless they drink it before it gets home?

As a Nutritionist, I know this isn’t perfectly healthy, but it’s a great compromise, and a unique idea…I like it!
