Non-candy treats that trick-or-treaters actually pick
We have filled a lot of treat bowls. These are the things that empty first.
Give them something to choose
Kids like to pick. A bowl with eight designs of bouncy ball or bubble wand gets more attention than a bowl of one thing, and it slows the line down just enough to say hello.
Glow sells itself
Anything that glows in the dark is gone by eight o'clock. Our glow-in-the-dark bouncy balls charge under the porch light while they wait in the bowl.
Count the street
A quiet street sees 30 to 60 children. A busy one, or a trunk-or-treat, can pass 200. Our Halloween bubble wands go from 80 to 500 to a box, and the prefilled cauldrons from 32 to 72, so you can buy for the street you actually live on.
Keep a second bowl
Many families now look for a non-food option. A separate bowl of small toys by the door means every child who knocks can take something home.
