If you're dreading your kids coming back from trick-or-treating with loads of toxic M&M's, Reese's, and Snickers...
Don't despair!
I have a trick for turning those poisons into real treats.
Her name is the Switch Witch!
If you've never heard of the Switch Witch, let me explain...
The morning after Halloween, the "Switch Witch" arrives and sweeps away all the junk candy.
My kids leave it by the door, and the witch switches it out for books, stickers, and BETTER treats.
At first, I thought my kids wouldn't love this idea.
But you know what happened?
They got MORE excited about what the Switch Witch would bring than they ever were about eating candy corn and Skittles.
Here's what makes this work:
Instead of feeling deprived, they feel like they're getting an upgrade.
They still get to trick-or-treat and collect candy with their friends...
And I don't have to be the "mean mom" who throws away their Halloween haul.
What the Switch Witch brings to our house:
I stock up on clean treats they can actually enjoy without the artificial dyes, corn syrup, and preservatives. Plus a few small toys or books they've been wanting.
I've put together all my favorite Switch Witch swaps in one place →
You'll find:
Better candy options without the junk ingredients
Fun non-candy treats
My favorite Halloween books
The best part?
My kids now understand that not all candy is created equal. They're learning to make better choices - not because I'm forcing them, but because they genuinely feel better when they eat cleaner treats.
This year, as you're preparing for Halloween, you have options.
You don't have to let your kids eat toxic candy for weeks.
You don't have to be the "fun police."
You just need a little creativity - and the Switch Witch.

P.S. If your kids are older and might not believe in the "Switch Witch," you can still do the swap! Just be honest: "Let's trade the junk candy for better treats and a few things you've been wanting." Works like a charm.
