There are several holidays that kids love. They love the parades and fireworks on the Fourth of July; they love the decorations and excitement surrounding the end-of-year holidays; they may even love all the good food and getting together with friends and family at Thanksgiving. There is, however, no holiday more kid-centric than Halloween. Oh sure, many non-kids like to get in on the Halloween action, but they are interlopers\u2026intruders.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The second major component of Halloween is the candy and other goodies that kids get for\u2014literally\u2014just showing up at someone\u2019s door. Kids can ring someone\u2019s doorbell, and a person will answer and give them candy.<\/p>\n

But, as October plods along to it\u2019s big finish on the 31st, what can be done to help impatient kids get through this month? Parents can start making Halloween snacks for their children, and let the kids help. Youngsters love helping make Halloween treats.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve found some great websites that provide plenty of kid-friendly treats that are fun to make and even more fun to eat.<\/p>\n

\n

Self-Proclaimed Foodie<\/a> has some great-looking monster cookies that take a bit more time\u20141 hour and 15 minutes\u2014and only makes nine cookies, but they are so cool looking, you\u2019ll want to make a few batches.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

Forks and Beans<\/a> has a treat for the more health conscious. Using apples, strawberries, sunflower seeds, and sunflower butter, this good-for-you snack will still manage to frighten kids.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Genius Kitchen<\/a> has a treat that looks like it would be equally good for Halloween as it would be for fishing, if you could stop yourself from eating the bait before the fish do.
