If you're looking for something more eco than a plastic trick or treat bag this year, of course you could paint a pillow case like we like did in the good old days (my parents were green and didn't even know it!) or reuse a shopping bag you've already got on hand. But we're sort of partial to the limited edition Halloween ChicoBag,
Not only does this sturdy, lightweight nylon bag look cute--it was designed by a 12 year-old in a student contest--but when your kids outgrow it, ChicoBag will recycle it for you. It's just $4.95 at Nubius Organics and part of the proceeds go towards the not-for-profit, TreeSwing, which, somewhat ironically, helps promote better eating habits in kids.
I guess starting the day after Halloween? -Liz
