When you become a parent, Halloween revolves around the kids. You can make it special for you too, however, by trying some wine and Halloween candy pairings.

Once the kids go to bed on Halloween night, you have free rein in their candy bag. Don’t feel bad as you steal a few pieces because, after a long day of Halloween celebration, you deserve to relax.

Or, if you can’t wait until Halloween to try these wine and Halloween candy pairings, plan a night with friends to try them together. It would be the perfect Halloween party theme for adults, or you can have a girl’s night with a few of your closest friends.

Wine and Halloween Candy Pairing

1. Reese’s and Syrah

Syrah complements the peanut butter and chocolate perfectly. Syrah also helps balance the sweet and salty tastes of the Reese’s. Plus, it might remind you of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich as you try them together.

2. Snickers and Cabernet Sauvignon

Snickers have a strong flavor that requires a bold wine to compliment it. The sweetness and saltiness of the candy bar will be complemented by the bold Cabernet Sauvignon.

3. Reese’s Take-5 and Ice Wine

Ice wine is a dessert wine, but the sweetness is delicate. It’ll complement the sweet and salty flavors of the Reese’s Take-5 candy bar. Ice wine is made by letting the grapes freeze on the vine, which is what gives it its unique flavor.

4. 3 Musketeers and Red Zinfandel

Red zinfandel is semi-sweet and has a jammy flavor with hints of blackberry, black cherry, and plum. It pairs well with the creaminess and fluffiness of a 3 musketeers candy bar.

5. Milky Way and Madeira

This wine is less known to many, but it has hints of caramel, almonds, raisin, and coffee. It is absolutely amazing and compliments the caramel Milky Way perfectly.

6. Skittles and Sauvignon Blanc

I’m not usually a huge fan of sauvignon blanc, but when I tried it with skittles I was blown away. This dry wine compliments the skittles in a way that lets the sweet taste of skittles stand out in a pleasant way.

7. Starburst and Moscato

These two go well together because they have similar sweetness and fruity flavors. The Starburst and Moscato complement each other and both have a tart flavor.

8. M&M’s and Merlot

M&M’s pair well with most wines, but Merlot is a great one that highlights the chocolate in the candy. The sweetness of the candy will be complemented by smokey flavors with hints of red currant, cherry, berry, and warm spices.

9. Twix and Malbec

The chocolate and caramel candy bar are amazing with Malbec. This wine has hints of blackberries and cocoa, which complement the Twix.

10. Kit Kat and Pinot Noir

Pinot noir is my favorite wine, so I’m happy I found candy to pair it with. The bold flavors of fruit, cherry, and plum make it seem like you’re eating chocolate-covered fruit when you pair it with a kit kat bar.

11. Candy Corn and Chardonnay

If you’re one of those weirdos who like wine as dry as Chardonnay, this one is for you. When paired with candy corn, the buttery flavor of the candy goes with the buttery flavor of the Chardonnay. The wine softens the sugar found in the candy, too.

12. Hershey’s and Syrah

Yes, another candy that goes well with Syrah. As a full-bodied wine, Syrah complements and enhances the chocolatey flavor of a Hershey’s bar. It’s a classic pair and works well every time.

13. Butterfinger and Pinot Grigio

A Butterfinger candy bar is super sweet, and the citrus flavors of Pinot Grigio rounds it out. The dry taste and the hint of citrus highlight the crunch, too, and bring out the buttery taste of the candy bar.

Be Careful When Consuming Alcohol – Wine and Halloween Candy Pairings

I do not recommend drinking in excess. This blog post is intended to be used as a wine tasting type of post, where you consume a little amount of wine at a time. Be careful, know your limits, and practice safe alcohol consumption.

Popular Halloween Candy That is Not Safe for Allergy Kids

Halloween candy favorites that are not safe for kids with allergies, allergy kids, childhood allergies, unsafe Halloween treats, non-food Halloween treats, allergy-friendly Halloween treats

My son is severely allergic to eggs and since his diagnosis, I have become so much more aware of the ingredients in any food my family eats. Last Halloween was the first time I paid much attention to candy ingredients, and I was shocked by all of the popular Halloween candy that is not safe for allergy kids.

I realized that my little man couldn’t eat more than half of the candy in his trick-or-treat bag!! It wasn’t a huge deal last year since he was only a year old, but this year he’s really starting to notice that he doesn’t get what his brothers and sisters get all of the time.

My son isn’t alone in this battle, either. There are 1 in 13 kids in the United States who suffer from an allergy to one of the 8 main allergies.

For these kids, coming into contact with the ingredient can cause a minor reaction of hives and an eczema outbreak OR a serious reaction that requires an EpiPen and hospital visit. Worst case scenario (but completely possible) is that the child could die. I don’t mean to be blunt, but it’s the harsh reality of living with an allergy.

8 Major Allergies

The 8 major allergies that tend to be the most unsafe include:

  • Peanuts
  • Tree nuts
  • Dairy
  • Egg
  • Soy
  • Wheat
  • Fish
  • Shellfish
Halloween candy favorites that are not safe for kids with allergies, allergy kids, childhood allergies, unsafe Halloween treats, non-food Halloween treats, allergy-friendly Halloween treats

Popular Halloween Candy That Is Not Safe For Allergy Kids

1. Snickers

Of the 8 major allergies, Snickers contains dairy, soy, peanuts, and egg. There is also a warning that it may contain tree nuts.

2. Milky Way

A Milky Way candy bar contains soy, dairy, gluten, and egg.

3. Butterfinger

Of the major allergies, Butterfinger contains peanuts and dairy.

4. Kit Kat

Kit Kat candy bars contain dairy, soy, and gluten.

5. M&M’s

Dairy and soy are both found in M&M’s.

6. 3 Musketeers

This popular candy bar contains dairy, soy, and egg.

7. Twix

One of my favorites, but it, unfortunately, contains dairy, soy, and gluten.

8. Hershey’s Kisses

A Hershey’s Kiss contains both dairy and soy, making them unsafe for many allergy kids.

9. Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup

Obviously, this one contains peanuts, but it also contains dairy and soy.

10. PayDay

Many people know that this candy bar contains peanuts, but are surprised to learn that it also includes dairy, egg, and soy.

Allergy Friendly Halloween Treats

So, now that you know most of your favorite Halloween candy contains some of the top 8 allergies, you may be stumped on what to pass out to trick-or-treaters on Halloween. Think outside of the box here! You can pass out fun toys and other items that kids love just as much as candy.

I love this option, as it includes quite a few choices.

Kids like more than just candy, so it’s not spoiling the fun if you opt-out of the option. Plus, the kids will likely be MORE excited to have an extra surprise that they weren’t expecting in their bag!! Since this day is dedicated to candy, however, I also included allergy-free candy in the list.

  • Play-doh
  • Stickers
  • Tattoos
  • Coupon books
  • Dots
  • Ring Pop
  • Skittles
  • Smarties
  • Sour Patch Kids
  • Starburst
  • Swedish Fish
  • Jelly Belly
  • Bubbles
  • Circuit Peanuts
  • Push Pops
  • Baby Bottle Pops
  • Jolly Rancher
  • Halloween rings
  • Hot Tamales
  • Halloween pencils
  • Mike & Ikes
  • Halloween erasers
  • Dum Dums
  • Welch’s fruit snacks
  • Fun Dip
  • Spree
  • Runts
  • Matchbox Cars
  • Small dinosaur toys
  • Crayons

Please remember: The manufacturing process can change at any time, so always read ingredient labels and check for warnings just in case it has changed since the publication of this blog post. If you are ever unsure about the ingredients in a piece of candy, it is always best to skip that one.

The Teal Pumpkin

If you see a teal pumpkin, this signifies a place with treats that are not food. This movement ensures that all treats are safe for children with allergies, and prevents anyone from being in an unsafe position or feeling left out.

If you see a home with a teal pumpkin on Halloween, they’re likely joining in on the movement for non-food Halloween treats. If you’re interested, check the list above which contains some non-food treats.

What is the “Switch Witch”?

The “Switch Witch” is where the unsafe candy is traded out in the middle of the night for treats that are safe. Some parents have a non-allergy sibling switch with the allergy sibling, while others buy candy that they know is a safe option to switch with their allergy child’s unsafe candy.

Can You Offer Both Options?

Sure! If you keep the allergy-friendly Halloween treats separate from the other candy, most allergy kids will be able to choose those options. Don’t be offended if an allergy child has to refuse if you offer both, but most of the time keeping the candy in a separate container will be fine!

Final Thoughts On Popular Halloween Candy That is Not Safe for Allergy Kids

Allergies are becoming very common for children, and oftentimes these allergies are life-threatening. For these kids and their parents, holidays such as Halloween that revolve around food and treats are incredibly stressful and frustrating as it requires heavy monitoring on the parent’s part and lots of sadness on the child’s part.

Knowing which treats are safe and which ones are unsafe ahead of time can greatly help allergy families during Halloween. The even better option, however, is to have allergy-friendly treats available and separate from the allergen-containing options. Non-candy treats are the best option yet!

Easy Fall Sensory Bin With Dyed Rice

The fall fun has begun, and that means we’re doing ALL of the fall activities at our house. When Peyton created his Layers of the Earth 3D Project, I was inspired to dye rice in all fall-inspired colors and create an easy fall sensory bin.

How to Make an Easy Fall Sensory Bin by Dying Rice

What you need:

how to dye rice, dyed rice, rice dying, easy fall sensory bin, easy sensory activity, easy fall activity, fall sensory activity

Directions:

  1. Put 1 cup of rice in each Ziploc bag.
  2. Add 1 teaspoon of vinegar into each bag of rice.
  3. Add a differet color of food coloring to each bag.
  4. Zip the bag and mix the rice with the food coloring.
  5. Once the rice is completely coated and dyed to the color you want, dump it onto dry papertowel and let it dry for about 1 hour
  6. Once all of the dyed rice is dry, mix the 4 colors together in a bowl or sensory table.
  7. Add small Halloween toys or fall colored leaves for more fun.

Halloween Dyed Rice Sensory Bin

how to dye rice, dyed rice, rice dying, easy fall sensory bin, easy sensory activity, easy fall activity, fall sensory activity

Using the same ingredients and similar steps, you can make an easy hallowed sensory bin for your kiddos, too! Instead of separating the rice in 1 cup increments into 4 separate bags, you will put two cups of rice into two separate bags (4 cups of rice total, still).

Once the rice is distributed, you will put 2 teaspoons of vinegar into each of the 2 bags, and then put orange food coloring into one bag and black food coloring into the other bag.

Follow the remaining steps, waiting for the dyed rice to dry before mixing colors together.

Another Easy Halloween Sensory Idea

Instead of doing orange and black for the Halloween sensory bin, you could dye all of the rice purple and add fun things like googly eyes or witches cauldrons in the sensory bin.

You could really do this however you want. Just follow the steps and change up the colors as needed.

And if your kids are like my kids they will do this:

I’m not sure if I should blame Liam or Josie for mixing the fall sensory bin with the Halloween sensory bin, and then they added purple and pink rice, too.. they both blamed one another. Still fun, though!

Final Thoughts On Easy Fall Sensory Bin With Dyed Rice

I love fun and easy activities, so this easy fall sensory bin with dyed rice was perfect for us. It was incredibly easy to make, pretty inexpensive, and the food coloring goes a LONG way so we were able to make a ton of dyed rice in all different colors.

My kids loved this… my 11-year-old loved it just as much as my 2-year-old, so it’s definitely a hit with everyone. My favorite part is that it is easy to clean up. You can simply sweep it up and throw it away, with no sticking or staining.

What is your favorite easy sensory activity to do with your kids? Have you tried dyed rice before? Leave me a comment and tell me about it!

4 Simple Fall Handprint Crafts For Kids

**I originally wrote this Fall Handprint Crafts post for my old blog, which I do not post to anymore. I decided to move it over here when I realized it was still being shared.**

Years ago, I worked as an infant/toddler teacher. I taught one-year-old toddlers, which was so much fun. Between my classroom of Wonderful One’s and my own babies at home, I did lots of simple crafts that could be used as keepsakes for years to come.

Handprint crafts are always my favorite because, let’s face it, what parent doesn’t want to see their tiny toddler’s handprint when that tiny toddler grows to become a not-so-tiny child, teen, adult, etc.? I know that my little’s won’t be little for long, and I want every memory possible of how little they once were.

Without further ado, here are a few of my favorite simple handprint crafts for fall.

Simple Fall Handprint Crafts

1. Frankenstein handprint craft

Frankenstein craft, fall craft, hand print craft, easy fall craft for kids, handprint crafts

For this cute little Frankenstein, you’ll just paint 4 of the child’s fingers black (do not pain the thumb), and the rest of the hand (not the thumb) green. Then, place their hands flat on the paper. Once the paint is dry, use a sharpie or other black marker to draw the face and the lines.

2. Handprint pumpkin with fingerprint stem

hand print pumpkin, pumpkin craft, fall craft, hand print craft, easy fall craft for kids, handprint crafts

For this fall handprint craft, you will paint your little one’s hand orange and place it flat on a white piece of paper. Then, paint their pointer finger green and place that flat on the same sheet of white paper. While you wait for the paint to dry, cut an orange pumpkin shape and a green stem shape out of construction paper.

Once the paint is dry, you’ll cut around the handprint and around the fingerprint. Have your little one help you glue the handprint to the pumpkin shape and the fingerprint stem to the green paper, and then glue the stem to the pumpkin.

3. Handprint leaves

leaf craft, leaf hand print, fall craft, hand print craft, easy fall craft for kids, handprint crafts

I love, love, love this one!! You’ll paint the child’s hand 3 separate times, once for a yellow handprint, one for red, and once for orange. You’ll put all 3 handprints on the same page, wait for them to dry, and then draw “stems” through the handprint leaves.

Check out my post about this craft here —-> Fall Crafts for Kids – Handprint Leaves – Mom Wife Wine

4. Handprint spider

spider craft, halloween craft, hand print spider, fall craft, handprint craft, easy fall craft for kids, handprint crafts

This one was so much fun and the kids really loved it. You’ll paint your child’s hand black (excluding the thumb) and put it flat on the paper but sideways. Then, you’ll do the same with the other hand, overlapping the palms of the hand. Once the paint is dry, add a white smile and googly eyes. You can even add a spider web to the craft, too.

Side Notes on Fall HandPrint Crafts

*If you don’t know what kind of paint to use, here is the link to what I use!

*Always remember to write the child’s name and the date somewhere on the craft (this could be on the back).
