"What is your policy on giving kids candy? What age do you think it is appropriate?
And.. be honest.. do you eat your kids Halloween candy?:)"
Do i eat their halloween candy?? Well...i'm pretty sure i've already eaten half my body weight in halloween candy!! What can i say, it's just sitting there staring at me like "eat me, all of me, you know i taste so good!" We took 4 children trick or treating. We got 4x the candy. I literally have a HUGE plastic bag FULL of chocolate in the freezer! (I set out a small bowl on the counter so not to be too tempted) As far as letting them eat it, SURE! I went through it all, threw out what i didnt want and what i didnt want them to have, what looked spooky and kept the rest (mostly chocolate) They've been eating table food since 6 months old. Of course we limit the amount they get, maybe a piece or two a day, but hey, they worked hard for that candy! They drug those 10 lb bags of candy up and down the streets! We tried a few thousand times to take the bags and carry them for them but they just wouldnt have it! We had sooooo much fun, and they did too!!

Oh my! What cuties! Yes, my kids eat candy. Yes, I gave it to them young. I love all the Halloween candy, especially the gooey caramels. I dug through my kids Halloween bags from day 1, looking for all the goodies, that I liked. By week 2 following Halloween, I was throwing the candy out. This was the first year my youngest son announced that he was not dressing up or going trick or treating (ugh)...My candy fix each year, is now over.
I Just joined the Sistahood. It was my pleasure to leave a comment. :-) Nice blog.
SO very cute and yes we do besides the fact I have a son who can not eat nuts or peanuts so I get all of that! yummmmmm
They are so cute!! I eat all my kids candy...as soon as they go to bed, then I blame it on my hubby. New follower!!
Ha! I should SO freeze what little is left of their candy. Since Weaky is just 18 months he doesn't get all the good stuff, and Bagel,well she would live off candy if I let her. So I agree, maybe a piece a day. Less as the memory of Halloween fades, and as the candy dwindles... to my belly!
