Let&#8217;s face it, there&#8217;s too much sugar in that cute pumpkin shaped bucket to turn any kid loose with it sans supervision. As a parent setting boundaries, you can determine the best way to approach the task of removing harmful items.<\/p>\n<p>If your child is very young, you may not even want to mention gluten. You can simply focus on yourself as the keeper of all sugarfest items and establish a schedule that you will follow for doling out the treats. Once you&#8217;ve set that expectation, dispose of the harmful items and distribute the others as promised. <\/p>\n<p>You will have successfully set your child&#8217;s expectation, and although they may put up a fuss in the beginning, if you stick with your plan they will soon give up in recognition that fussing is futile. Yes, some kids will require being told no over and over and over again, but the simplest solution to such behavior for the long haul is to stick by your plan. <\/p>\n<p>Each time you enforce boundaries and show the kids you mean what you say, you reinforce the idea that defiance will not result in a change in your plan. Setting this standard early will be useful as your children mature and you must help them understand that you will not allow them to have gluten-filled pizza no matter how much they whine that all their friends get to eat it. <\/p>\n<p>If your child is older, you may want to have a conversation about which candies are gluten-free so that they can make good choices when at a friend&#8217;s house or in the convenience store.<\/p>\n<p>Now let&#8217;s get to that candy list so you can move on to the task of finding or finishing the perfect costume!<\/p>\n<p><em>From Hershey&#8217;s<\/em><br \/>\n<strong>Enjoy:<\/strong><br \/>\nAlmond Joy (except Almond Joy Pieces)<br \/>\nHERSHEY&#8217;s Milk Duds (all)<br \/>\nHERSHEY&#8217;s Nuggets<br \/>\nHERSHEY&#8217;s Nuggets Milk Chocolate with Almonds<br \/>\nHERSHEY&#8217;s SPECIAL DARK Dark Chocolate with Almonds<br \/>\nHERSHEY&#8217;s Nuggets Extras Creamy Milk Chocolate with Toffee and Almonds<br \/>\nHERSHEY&#8217;s Milk Chocolate Bar<br \/>\nHERSHEY&#8217;s Milk Chocolate Bar with Almonds<br \/>\nHERSHEY&#8217;s Air Delight<br \/>\nHeath Bar<br \/>\nMilk Chocolate Kisses<br \/>\nCaramel Filled Chocolate Kisses<br \/>\nCherry Cordial Creme Kisses<br \/>\nMOUNDS (all)<br \/>\nPAYDAY (all)<br \/>\nREESE&#8217;s Peanut Butter Cups (except for unwrapped minis and seasonal shapes)<br \/>\nREESE&#8217;s PIECES (all except REESE&#8217;s PIECES Eggs)<br \/>\nROLO Caramels (all except Minis)<br \/>\nScharffen Berger<br \/>\nSkor Toffee Bar<br \/>\nYORK Peppermint Pattie (all except YORK PIECES, YORK Minis and YORK Shapes)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Avoid:<\/strong><br \/>\nAlmond Joy Pieces<br \/>\nHERSHEY&#8217;s Extra Dark Chocolate<br \/>\nHERSHEY&#8217;s Cookies &#8216;N&#8217;
