To prevent your children from overeating on Halloween treats, introduce them to the Halloween fairy. After the kids have tried some of their treats, have them set out the rest for the Halloween fairy, who visits at night, and replaces their treats with a small toy. This way the kids still get to try some treats, but do not overeat, and do not feel cheated, since their treats are replaced with a toy.
