Twas the night after Halloween . . .
. . . are you ready for the Halloween Fairy, also called the Candy Fairy?
This Halloween Fairy delivers gifts to children. But . . . you must trade almost all, not all, of your Halloween candy to receive the gift. The Halloween fairy is generous so she’ll let you eat _________ pieces. (To be determined by the Halloween fairy at each house.)
What gift? you ask. Well, I’m sure your child knows what little gifts the Halloween Fairy probably delivers. Just ask.
In fact, your kids may want to practice being the Halloween Fairy prior to Halloween.
- Have one child decide what to trade. He or she must set it out and pretend to fall asleep.
- Trade pennies for leaves, rocks for toys, . . . anything works.
- The “Halloween Fairy” can arrive with the trade while the child is pretend sleeping and make the trade with stealth.
- Fun, isn’t it!?
I doubt your kids will need much help thinking of things to trade. Have fun. Happy Halloween!

This is a great idea. You should link up for next week’s Friday’s Feast where I talk about Halloween food and fun.
Sweet idea!
