What’s With Those Teal Pumpkins?
You may notice teal pumpkins in front of the houses you see when you take your children trick or treating this weekend. These pumpkins indicate that non - food items like glow sticks, small toys, and other items are available in addition to candy and other treats. These non - food items allow children with food allergies to be included in trick or treating fun.
Here are just a few of the items you can offer for trick or treaters with food allergies:
Glow sticks, bracelets, or necklaces
Bouncy balls
Finger puppets or novelty toys
Spider rings
Vampire fangs
Stickers
Stencils
