Snikiddy Makes Halloween Healthy (and doesn’t get your house egged.)
As Halloween approaches, I am thinking more and more about the crap that we feed our children in the name of obesity cancer heart disease diabetes bad habits fun. In great moderation, of course, candy is perfectly fine but there’s also interesting debate about the ethics of the major candy producers. So much so that I don’t feel I can purchase mainstream candy and feel good about where I’m putting my money. However, I also don’t want to be the family who hands out raisins (thought in my heart that’s who I am) because eggs just don’t look good on my house. This year, in addition to some chips for the big kids and playdough for the little ones, I’m going to hand out snack packs of Snikiddy Snacks. Remember them?
They’re delicious, organic, totally-almost-guilt-free cookies and snackies that are available in individual packages perfect for trick-or-treating ghouls & goblins. And Spidermen. And princesses. My personal fave are definitely the Chocolate Chippers but my son & daughter love the Banana Nibblers too.
The only problem? Keep them under lock and key or there won’t be any left on October 31.
Win it! Snikiddy is going to send an assortment of sample snacks to one lucky commenter – just leave a comment on this post before noon mst on October 27/08.
Additional entries available – up to four per person. See contest entry information and rules.
CONTEST CLOSED & WINNER EMAILED.

My kids have never had anything organic but it makes sense to feed them something healthy while they still are healthy. The individual packages help to portion control the snacks too.

I would lot to have my kids try these. It is so hard to find good, healthy snacks.
October 23rd, 2008 at 4:22 am
I’d love to give them a try
October 23rd, 2008 at 4:23 am
WOW! These would be awesome to give away to the treaters who come to the house.
I HATE some of the junk our kids get. I know this sounds “rotten” but since my kids are young we tend to get back home early so what we do is go through their candy and take out the gum, Laffy Taffy, hard candies and other things we don’t want them to have and we put them in the candy bowl with the candy for the treaters who come to our place and just give it to those kids. So technically we keep all the chocolates. LOL! But the kids who come by later are the older kids any way who might enjoy that stuff. So I don’t think it’s all that bad. Plus it enables me to give out more candy to them.
Then we take the remaining candy (CHOCOLATE!) that the kids got treating and put it all in a big bowl so there is no fighting over whose is whose. Most of the time after a couple of days the candy has lost it’s appeal to the kids (I know, weird, right?) and then my husband takes the rest to work with him and puts it out in the lunch room where people pretty much devour it.
Thanks for a yummy giveaway!
October 23rd, 2008 at 5:22 am
