Too much candy? Keep it or donate?

Can you really have too much candy?

Yes - if mom is trying to cut out sugar from

her diet and from the rest of the family's food.

 

This is our collection for both kids - 4 years old and 1 1/2 year old.

What can you do with all that candy?

Donate it!

Our school collects the candy and gives it

to a local charity.

 

We are really trying to encourage our 4 year old to help others.

I read on FB about a mother who started the "Switch Witch."

Her kids leave a bunch of their candy outside their bedroom.

During the night the "witch" takes the candy and leaves a gift.

 

I like that idea, but don't want to lie about the witch.

My husband and I decided we are going to tell our daughter

if she donates the candy, she will get to pick out a gift.

She can get a toy, book, movie, etc.

 

I know she should donate because it is

the nice thing to do,

but a 4 year old doesn't always get that concept.

 

What do your kids do with all their candy?

Feel free to admit that you just eat it all!
