do your kids (who are old enough) get a free period where they can haul their candy around and eat it at will or do you imediately confiscate most of it and dole it out a piece at a time?
When we were kids our baskets were ours and if we wanted to stuff our face and eat it all in one day that was fine. With 4 of us there was usually one who saved it and ate it slowly just to taunt the kids who ate theirs in the first day or two.
Our kids' baskets won't have a ton of candy so I'm thinking I might talk Shane into letting them go at it for awhile but we don't allow candy in bedrooms so at some point it will have to get put up.
