We are planning on two pieces a day until all the good stuff runs out.

They pick out what they want to keep and have a piece or two a night until it's gone. I eat some of it too. I give away what they don't want in my buy nothing group.

When my kids were little we let them eat whatever they wanted on Halloween (that usually ended up being 4-6 minis). When they were in pre-school, they forgot about it literally the next day. When they got older, they would take a few pieces to school for about a week.

OMG, let them eat it. It's not like it goes bad.

Unless you have a binge eater in the house, I don't see the problem with having a stash of Candy for the kid to pick out of for desserts or special treats.

Why even go trick or treating?

They got to pick ten pieces (twenty when they were older) and used the rest to trade for a small toy. DH brought the rest to work.

We are a family with obesity issues and too much sugar is disastrous for us.

This. One piece in her lunch or at dessert for as long as it lasts, plus more now and again for fun.

DH thinks it's wrong to eat DD's candy. I think food in the house is for everyone, and we all walked door to door in the cold.

Let them eat it. One kid got a ridiculous amount this year though, probably 25 lbs. a lot will go to TFT.

Pretty liberal on 10/31 and then a piece a night until Thanksgiving when it goes out. They have probably eaten all the favorites by then. They share with us too.

My kid is two so we just eat it. When he’s older we will give him a piece or two a day until it’s gone. We will probably eat some of it until he’s old enough to notice.

Let them eat it. Not all at once. It'll last until Christmas probably, but we don't take or eat any of it ourselves.

Let them have as many pieces as they are years old and then drop it off at the office.
