Halloween parties and trick-or-treating can be food allergy danger zones. Even if your child is cautious about the foods they eat or touch, there are bound to be other children eating your child's allergens. The potential for cross-contamination is great.

Some families opt to hold their own allergy-friendly Halloween parties. Others may trick-or-treat in a limited way, going only to homes that they know will have safe candy.  What are your Halloween safety tips for kids with food allergies? Share your ideas with other readers!
