For many kids, Halloween is not their favorite holiday. It’s not that they don’t like dressing up, or that they don’t love candy. Food Allergies make it a not so fun holiday for some kids. There’s a Food Allergy Friendly Trunk or Treat Event coming up on Saturday, October 29th in Woodbury. If your child is one that is affected by allergies, then this event would be great to add to your calendar.
We are trying a fun new tradition this year by taking our trick or treating outside! Join us for a food allergy friendly “Trunk or Treat” event in Woodbury, the Saturday before Halloween. Kiddos will dress in costume and Trick or Treat from car to car while adults decorate the trunk of their cars and hand out (only) Top 8 allergen free candy. Siblings are more than welcome to trick-or-treat as well!
The success of this event depends on all of us to get involved, buy safe candy and make it fun for the kids.
