You can print that out and mount on foam core and put it up on your lawn? Like one of those campaign lawn stakes? Then your neighbor's see it and it's on your property so no offense taken. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teal-pumpkin-project-printable#post-2315578 Sat, 10 Oct 2015 12:01:41 +0000 yin 2315578@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank you for posting! I cannot wait to participate this year and excited to spread awareness. I'm making treat bags with bubbles, temporary tattoos, and glow bracelets. I'm also offering allergy free candies as well. I'm tempted to print out flyers for my neighbors but not sure if people will be offended. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teal-pumpkin-project-printable#post-2315341 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 19:23:38 +0000 78h2o 2315341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been giving out non food treats in addition to candy for the last 15 years (yeah, I'm old), and kids LOVE the non-food stuff, even the ones without allergies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teal-pumpkin-project-printable#post-2315335 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 19:14:08 +0000 T-Mom 2315335@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: I used acrylic last year. I don't know about rain but it stood up to heat last year. It sealed in my pumpkins really well... I kept waiting for them to rot and they never really did. I think I tossed them in December! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teal-pumpkin-project-printable#post-2315333 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 19:12:51 +0000 T-Mom 2315333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes thanks @regberadaisy: for posting! Teal pumpkin is about having another non-candy option available. It doesn't mean you can't hand out candy. There's lots of reasons kids may not want a food treat. Allergies are just one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teal-pumpkin-project-printable#post-2315320 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 18:52:23 +0000 regberadaisy 2315320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Any experience with what kind of paint to use on the pumpkin that will hold up to rain? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teal-pumpkin-project-printable#post-2315314 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 18:43:51 +0000 regberadaisy 2315314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rattles: oh man, that's a great deal! I got mine from Dollar Tree and it was 8/$1!</p> <p>@Cole: Amazon has something like 100 glow bracelets for $9! 8" LumiStick Brand Glowsticks Glow Stick Bracelets Mixed Colors (Tube of 100) <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000IZ9N78/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_BffgwbVPECC5V" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000IZ9N78/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_BffgwbVPECC5V</a></p> <p>They also have a 300 pack for $22.</p> <p>Sadly, we don't get a lot of kids....I think it's because like 60% of the houses are Orthodox Jews. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teal-pumpkin-project-printable#post-2315309 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 18:40:48 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2315309@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks for posting the reminder! We usually do both and I swear the non-candy treats go faster than the candy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teal-pumpkin-project-printable#post-2315265 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 17:15:00 +0000 Mrs. Goose 2315265@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is a great idea. I think I will do this next year! I already bought some nut free candy. I could eat it I guess.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teal-pumpkin-project-printable#post-2315248 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 16:51:53 +0000 mrskc 2315248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cool thanks! I just found out DD has a peanut and egg allergy so we will definitely be participating this year. It honestly never even occurred to me to offer non candy treats for kids with allergies. Now off to find some non-candy goodies! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teal-pumpkin-project-printable#post-2315247 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 16:51:39 +0000 rattles 2315247@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're participating too. I bought glow bracelets from the Target dollar spot - 15 for $1! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teal-pumpkin-project-printable#post-2315241 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 16:43:46 +0000 daniellemybelle 2315241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>EDITED: I should have clicked first to find the "candy and non food treats" printable! Thank you! I wasn't sure if I should participate because we are doing both. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teal-pumpkin-project-printable#post-2315232 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 16:34:04 +0000 Cole 2315232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank you! I want to participate but I wasn't aware we could offer both options. We get several hundred trick or treaters and it adds up fast! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teal-pumpkin-project-printable#post-2315189 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 16:07:53 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 2315189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We regularly do the glow bracelets. I get about 12 for $1-$2. The kids love them and I feel better than giving them more sugar. I'll have to get a teal pumpkin... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teal-pumpkin-project-printable#post-2315169 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 15:55:42 +0000 MrsH 2315169@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: we are doing glow bracelets. thanks for the printable a site. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teal-pumpkin-project-printable#post-2315160 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 15:51:16 +0000 regberadaisy 2315160@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was looking around for a good infographic about the Teal Pumpkin Project to print out and post up at daycare and work bulletin boards.</p> <p>On the FARE site, there are some great free printables! A flyer to raise awareness and printables for your door.</p> <p><a href="http://www.foodallergy.org/teal-pumpkin-project/downloads#.VhglOFX3anM" rel="nofollow">http://www.foodallergy.org/teal-pumpkin-project/downloads#.VhglOFX3anM</a></p> <p>Special shout out to @T-Mom, @yin and all the allergy parents, who've made me aware how bad kids reactions to allergies can be. And that through love and effort on their part, their kids don't have to suffer and feel left out of every day things! :heart: </p> <p>I have leftover mini crayons, bubbles from past daycare Halloween treats. And extra glow bracelets from this year I plan to offer.</p> <p>Join the #tealpumpkinproject movement! 🎃 </p>
