Moms of Toddlers...what candy do you let them eat?!?

My DS is 18 months old...he has had peanut butter, so I figured maybe a peanut butter cup....

my DD loves candy corn (thanks mom) and lollypops.... she hasn't had chocolate (I don't think- although who knows- my mom could've sneaked it)

Yeah, DS has had candy corn (my mom too, but she asks if she can give him blueberries, but gives him candy cornChat Icon )

Hmm, good suggestion!

My DD will not be getting any candy (she is 14 months old). My 3 year old can eat anything that he can chew easily (NO hard candies) and no taffy or stuff that can stick in his teeth. Same thing for my 5 year old.

I don't give Steven any candy.

Recently, my mom has been giving him M&M's, which I'm OK with. As far as the trick or treat candy goes, DH can have it all, Steven can have a little package of M&M's, but that's it.

Re: Moms of Toddlers...what candy do you let them eat?!?

I will let him have a lollipop and a taste of a piece of chocolate but thats it. He becomes obsessed with sugar when he gets it and Oh boy, I cannot have that or I will find him on the ceiling fan next Chat Icon

Re: Moms of Toddlers...what candy do you let them eat?!?

You don't want to know!!!Chat Icon We just finished potty training so she has been eating ALOT of candy. Plus, the candy bowl has been at the front door for the past week. I plan on letting this go for the next couple of days and then getting rid of the rest!!!! But to answer your question, she usually has m&m's, mini hershey bars & kisses, and just tried skittles.

Re: Moms of Toddlers...what candy do you let them eat?!?

She likes m&m's and twizzlers....that's about all she'll have candy-wise. Not that we are going to many houses but I'll trade out her other candy in her goody bag for those mini bags of pretzels and animal crackers. I am not worried---my DD hardly eats at all!Chat Icon

Re: Moms of Toddlers...what candy do you let them eat?!?

ds is 12 months and he hasn't had candy, but i did let him have a halloween cupcake at a party we went to. i have no problem giving him a little chocolate if he wants to try it. i won't do other sugary type candy because of the choking hazard.

overall i believe everything is fine in moderation...

Re: Moms of Toddlers...what candy do you let them eat?!?

Bella's OBSESSED with M&M's. She's had them a few times and whenever she sees them she goes NUTZ! Chat Icon Chat Icon

So I'll *think* we'll be limiting her choc/sugar intake tonight...but nothing will be off limits if we decide to give her a few pieces.

Re: Moms of Toddlers...what candy do you let them eat?!?

DD doesn't like food in general, unless it's a crunchy carb Chat Icon (no, seriously Chat Icon ), so she doesn't like candy or cake or anything fun! I'd let her have a piece of candy if she'd eat it, but nowhere near bedtime though!

Whatever she wants, just not all at once. We'll ration it out for a few days then toss it.

He can have whatever mommy doesnt like Chat Icon Just kidding Chat Icon Chat Icon

Actually the ones we don't let him have are the hard candies, hard to chew taffy's, gum etc...He's not a big chocolate kid so we don't have to worry about that too much...He's more into lolly's, gummy candies, smarties etc...
