Why You Should Always Check Your Child’s Halloween Candy

Posted by

Halloween is all about fun, costumes, and sweet treats — but before your kids dive into their candy haul, take a few minutes to inspect it.

Here’s why it matters:

  • Safety first: Occasionally, candy may be unwrapped, tampered with, or contain unexpected items. Always discard anything that looks suspicious or opened.
  • Allergy awareness: Many treats contain nuts, dairy, or other allergens that can be dangerous if your child has sensitivities.
  • Homemade treats caution: Unless they come from someone you personally know and trust, it’s safest to avoid homemade goodies.
  • Portion control: Sorting candy also gives parents a chance to teach moderation and limit excessive sugar intake.

Tip: Check candy under good lighting, separate questionable pieces, and enjoy the holiday knowing your child’s treats are safe to eat!

Stay spooky, stay safe, and have a Happy Halloween!
