1 in 13 kids in the U.S. have at least one food allergy.. This is SUPER frustrating and disheartening as Halloween approaches and parents have to worry about their children getting candy with known allergens in them (gluten, dairy, soy, nuts, etc)…
Food Allergy Research & Education has taken the Teal Pumpkin Project campaign national and even news agencies are supporting the initiative. The Teal Pumpkin Project’s goal is to protect kids with food allergies by letting trick-or-treating families know that there are non-food or allergy-safe options at your house.
As a food allergy sufferer myself and mama to littles with food allergies, this is a VERY exciting and important movement!!! My kids already have their costumes picked out and are excited to be watching for teal pumpkins 😀
Some non-candy ideas to drop in trick-or-treaters bags are: bubbles, play-doh, temporary tattoos, glow sticks, sidewalk chalk, mini puzzles, stickers…
Just 3 weeks ’til Halloween, and little ones (and big people too!) with food allergies should not be left out of the festivities!! Of course you can order some goodies from Ambrosia Natural Bakery that are totally food allergy-friendly for your little goblins and ghoulish celebrations!!!
