Glow-in-the-Dark Chalk: A Non-Candy Halloween Treat
Looking for a Halloween goodie that’s not candy? DIY chalk in the shape of noses, fingers, bones, etc.


Consider giving crafts, not candy this Halloween. Not only will it last longer, it also doesn’t cause cavities. Giving out small toys and trinkets to trick-or-treaters is great way to support kids with food allergies. Put out your teal pumpkin and hand out glow-in-the-dark chalk this year.
