Halloween is just around the corner, and you might be worried that your child is going to bring home a ton of unwanted candy from trick-or-treating. You might just want to tell your kid to get as much candy as possible this year! You can send it overseas to a soldier stationed in a foreign country like Afghanistan, and he or she can hand out the candy to the local children. There's a site called anysoldier.com that gives you a list of participating soldiers that would like to get care packages, and you can find a soldier who would love to get candy. This site gives you all the specifics, including do's and don'ts. Having your child give away their hard earned Halloween candy will instill a sense of pride and purpose in that they are doing something very generous for someone else. Giving treats to the local children builds trust between the soldiers and the locals and is a great way for them to build friendships as well. This year, collect as much Halloween candy as possible, and send it half way around the world!
