I love Halloween. I love the colors, the pumpkins, the black cats &
witches, the costumes, really I love all of it except the candy. I loathe the candy. It
isn't surprising, to people that know me, when I tell them I confiscate
all candy on November 1st. My monsters get to choose 5 pieces to hoard
away and eat at their own discretion... eat it all at once or eat it
sparingly, I don't care BECAUSE THAT'S ALL THEY HAVE ACCESS TOO!
Don't panic, I don't throw away the overpriced chocolate. I happily donate it the first chance I get and get that crap out of my house. Obviously, I loved this book because it was inline with my mad parenting skills.
Why Can't Everyday Be Halloween? is a fun children's book that tells the tale of coming down from a month of monsters and candy. Of course this story relays to kids in a fun way what might happen if you keep eating all that junk; unlike my approach of just ripping off the band-aid (aka take all the crap away).

Anyone with kids needs to get this book!

What are some Halloween traditions that you have that do not include sugary sweets?
