Give me your ideas for allergy friendly halloween treats. We are looking to accommodate the following:
- Nut allergies
- Gluten allergy
- Sugar free
I feel like I need to skip food options (but maybe I'm missing something). So hit me with your ideas!

Enjoy Life has treats that are free of the top 8 allergies (and more), but probably has sugar.
I tend to do non-food treats:
- Glow Sticks/Bracelets
- Stickers
- Stamps
- Bouncy Balls
- Bubbles
- Little Toys, etc

When I was a Special Ed teacher so many of my students had food allergies but wanted to partake in the "noshing" that is oftentimes part of school festivities so, for holidays I would make homemade Rice Krispies treats (for them to decorate if they chose as part of a sensory and hand-eye coordination exercise) and fruit leather. You can purchase both (brand name and Trader Joe's brand) but the sugar level is far lower if you make both from scratch.

Applesauce packages?
We have a no food policy for class celebrations, so instead, we are doing a craft.

Pirate Booty is my favorite snack that covers all three of those allergens! It's hard to find prepared baked goods with this combination of allergens/sensitivities if you aren't cooking from scratch - gf items are often made with nut flours and have a high sugar contents. If you're willing to bake, there are recipes out there that you could sub the sugar with stevia/agave/etc.

I don't have any ideas, but if you do go non-food, I noticed my Target had a lot of cute favors when I was there this weekend, so I went ahead and got a bunch. For example: https://www.target.com/p/50pc-halloween-bubbles-fangs-bouncy-balls-party-favor-hyde-and-eek-boutique-153/-/A-53283687

We like to do tattoos, stickers, or glow sticks. For tattoos and stickers, we've found big packs on Amazon that you can buy for cheap! (stickers are often in rolls that we cut apart)

Oh, Breyers sugar free vanilla ice cream is gluten and nut free! Might make an interesting base for a treat!

Applesauce pouches, fruit leather, raisins or other dried fruit...so basically fruit.

And bags of Pirates Booty....
Then one big bowl of regular candy and let the kids choose.
