We got about 100 trick-or-treaters last night! Jack had lots of fun taking the candy out of the bowl, handing it to daddy or throwing it around. Steve brought him out to a few neighbors too, so he added to our stash:)
Now that I am part of a lot of local parents lists/communities, I learned that it is now requested that you have a nut-free bowl in addition to the regular candy bowl. Basically any chocolate is considered suspect as they have nearly all been made in a "facility that also processes nuts" and some kids won't even be allowed to eat non-nut candy that is in the same bowl as the nut-candy. Yikes! The non-nut bowl can have little toys, stickers or sugary-candy (with no allergy issues). I was interested in that 4-5 kids were excited about having a nut-free bowl. Still a small percentage, but they seemed really happy, so I suppose it was worth the very minor effort.
Jack and I also went to a Parade for tots/preschoolers in town in the late afternoon. It was quite cute and I would say there were at least 200 people there which surprised me!
