Ever wonder what to do with your leftover Halloween candy? We have 3 kids and they are all very excited about going to as many houses as possible on Halloween night, and so needless to say we came home with a boatload of candy. Last year we started a new tradition - Halloween candy poker night. We used the candy as chips and assigned 3 different values to the candy . . . 25 cents, 50 cents, and a dollar. All of the really good chocolate was a dollar, the skittles and starbursts and the not so good chocolate (in my opinion) was 50 cents, and all of the little candies or onesie twosies were 25 cents. We made a little cheat sheet with 3 columns listing the value of all of the candy.
We invited a couple of families over and had poker night with the candy! It was so much fun and a great way to get rid of the candy (unless Melissa intentionally leaves her bag at your house). We had our new annual tradition last night and it was a blast. This is a great way to fellowship with other families . . . the kids had a great time hanging out as well!
