Halloween Candy Count Buffet

If -- I said if -- you can’t fight the candy on Halloween... Here’s how you can join it, have Halloween candy in your classroom, and still keep your sanity:

I create a Halloween Candy Count Buffet. Kids travel from left to right and count the right amount from each tray to stuff their baggies. Kids who can’t count objects get a buddy to help.

While kids wait their turn, they do an art project at their seats (and munch on a couple of M&Ms). They’re like kids in a candy shop—or is it heaven?
