I even read that the candies are actually given to soldiers in the Middle-east to boost their morale!

I also just read an article where one mom (safemama dot com) does the "switch witch". The kids leave their candy out before bed that they want to trade in. The more candy - the larger the toy. I thought that was a stellar idea! Love these ideas, thanks for sharing. I also just read an article where one mom (safemama dot com) does the “switch witch”.

Then, before he goes to bed he puts all his candy on the porch and while he's sleeping the Great Pumpkin comes and takes the candy and leaves him a new toy. So far it's working like a charm, and he still loves Halloween and gets very excited about it.
