13. How to Stop Freaking Out About Halloween Candy and Sugar Highs - a podcast by Amy Palanjian & Virginia Sole-Smith

The spooky season is upon us! And all too often, parents' biggest fear about Halloween is... what to do with all the candy. We know it can be a lot (especially if you've got multiple parties, parades and trick-or-treating ops in your town). But Halloween is also a fantastic opportunity to let your kids explore new foods, learn to handle themselves around treats, and (yes, really) enjoy some sugar. We talk about where this new candy phobia has come from, and go over our tips for making the onslaught fun and manageable for the whole family. And Amy chats with Sally of Real Mom Nutrition about her Switch Witch strategy.
