Are You Aware Of The Teal Pumpkin Project?

I was truly surprised to hear about the Teal Pumpkin Project.  I think it is a great idea, which is why I want to spread awareness around the Teal Pumpkin and what it represents.  If you don't know what the Teal Pumpkin Project is...it's time to find out how you can create a safer, happier Halloween.  

According to Foodallergy.org, here is how you can participate in the Teal Pumpkin Project:

1. Provide non-food treats for trick-or-treaters.
2. Place a teal pumpkin in front of your home to indicate to passersby that you have non-food treats available.

Ideas for non-food treats:

• Glow sticks, bracelets, or necklaces
• Pencils, pens, crayons or markers
• Bubbles
• Halloween erasers or pencil toppers
• Mini Slinkies
• Whistles, kazoos, or noisemakers
• Bouncy balls
• Finger puppets or novelty toys
• Coins
• Spider rings
• Vampire fangs
• Mini notepads
• Playing cards
• Bookmarks
• Stickers
• Stencils
