Tips for having a healthy Halloween

22 octubre 2024

Halloween is a time for fun, costumes, and treats. But it doesn't have to be a sugar overload. Here are some tips to make Halloween healthier for your family and friends.


For your family

  • Eat a healthy meal before trick-or-treating: This can help prevent overindulging in candy later.

  • Set candy limits: Decide on a reasonable amount of daily candy you want, and then don't exceed that amount.

  • Practice moderation: Enjoy treats, but balance them with healthier foods throughout the day.

  • Get moving: Make trick-or-treating a fun family exercise activity. Instead of driving, get those steps in as a family!


For Party Guests

  • Offer healthy snacks: Serve veggie platters, fruit skewers, or roasted pumpkin seeds.

  • Create fun, healthy-themed foods: Try "monster" guacamole dip or "witches' fingers" made from carrots.

  • Consider providing non-food activities: Set up craft stations or organize Halloween-themed games.

  • Limit sugary drinks: Offer water, unsweetened tea, or low-fat milk instead of sodas.


Remember, Halloween is about having fun. These tips can help make the holiday a bit healthier without sacrificing the excitement and joy of the season!
