Halloween is a time of excitement and fun, especially for kids eager to dress up in their favorite costumes and embark on a delightful candy hunt. However, for children with allergies, this holiday can pose a challenge, as many traditional Halloween treats contain allergens that can make the festivities spookier than enjoyable. But fear not! There are fantastic allergen-free options available that ensure all kids can join in on the Halloween fun.
