Holly Sometimes it seems that this time of year is only dedicated to decorating like crazy and feeding yourself and your kids so many sweets that everyone balloons into huge sugar pillows! This year you can do something a little different for your children and feed them something healthy and give them exercise by having them help you with your decorating.
Decorating for the holidays can actually be as fun and take up as much energy as playing a sport. Putting up all of those lights and huge inflatable pumpkins, turkeys and snowmen can give you just as much of a workout as going to the gym. That is why when it comes to an after decoration snack you may want to check out some ideas from Trick or Treat Me a blog written by food networks Robin Miller that is about healthy Halloween fun. One suggestion is that you give your kids chocolate milk after an activity. It’s good for them and it taste good too. The best part is that some milk is sold in shelf cartons so it can be stored in a pantry until your ready to use it. That makes it an easy grab. Something everyone wants when your busy getting those lights up or costumes on! The blog even has a link to a coupon!
Another great thing about this blog is that they are working with the World Wildlife fund to raise money for animals, the best part is it’s free for you. All you have to have is a Twitter account and check out Twick or Tweet Me. Once there all you have to do is send a Halloween tweet to someone you know and you will have donated $0.10 to WWF.
So what are you waiting for? Grab your Halloween decorations, your chocolate milk and make something amazing!
I would appreciate your thoughts on this post, why not comment?
