When I was little my Granny Great ( MyMom's grandma) used to put 25 pieces of candy on her Christmas tree for every grandchild. Starting on December 1st we got to pick a piece everyday until Christmas morning. I was only 5 when my Granny died and I remember this tradition vividly and I LOVED it-so I wanted to do this with our kids too...and hey-- it's a great way to use up that Halloween candy too;)
I also told the kids that this would be a great exercise in self-control--we'll see how that goes Christmas morning --will there be any candy left??? :)

That's a neat idea. Does the favorite candy get left for last or does it get eaten first?
