Heres everything you need to know about these blue-hued pumpkins
As Halloween gets closer yoursquore sure to see plenty of orange pumpkins on stoops and porches But what about teal pumpkins Find out why these non-traditional pumpkins are much more than decor and what important purpose they serve
The Teal Pumpkin Project
The Teal Pumpkin Project is an effort by the Food Allergy Research amp Education (FARE) organization to raise awareness of food allergies and promote inclusion of all trick-or-treaters during the Halloween season This project originated as a local activity by the Food Allergy Community of East Tennessee and has since become a worldwide event According to FARE teal is the color for food allergy awareness and has been used to raise awareness about food-related medical conditions for 20 years Those who participate in the project place a teal painted pumpkin outside their door and provide non-food treats to trick-or-treaters on Halloween
Food allergies are increasing
The incidence of food allergies is on the rise According to FARE one in 13 children has a food allergy Even tiny amounts of allergens can cause serious if not life-threatening reactions in those affected by food allergies (Looking for kid-friendly allergy-free treats Try one of these) Traditional Halloween candy and chocolate treats are rife with common food allergens including ingredients derived from wheat eggs soy nuts and milk Participating in the Teal Pumpkin Project allows children who are affected by food allergies to still participate in Halloween trick-or-treating activities and not feel left out from the festivities
How to participate
Placing a teal pumpkin on your doorstep or at the front of your home is the first step You can add your location to the Teal Pumpkin Project map to let trick-or-treaters know your stop is food-allergen safe Recommended non-food treats include small containers of bubbles spider rings glow sticks pencils stickers or finger puppets And if you do participate in the Teal Pumpkin Project that doesnrsquot mean you canrsquot also provide traditional treats as well If you do provide both non-food and candy treats FARE recommends asking trick-or-treaters if they have a food allergy or just give each child the option to choose which kind of treat he or she would like

The Art of Listening
ldquoI just want someone to listen to merdquo ldquoI want someone to hear how I really feelrdquo ldquoI want to be understoodrdquo These are all things we might have felt ourselves We donrsquot want someone to tell us how to do or what to do or what to think We just want to make our feelings known
There is an skill to listening We donrsquot all have it or we forget to use it But there is good news The ability to listen thoughtfully and carefully can be learned
On October 30 at our program at WoW the Stephen Ministry of the church will lead a session on how to really listen to another person It will be an abbreviated version of what our Stephen Ministers are taught with advice on how to value the needs of others by really listening to what they are saying both in words and in actions When we listen we elevate the feelings and needs of others above our own and value them for who they really are
People like to be understood Come learn some tips on how to understand what others are saying by sharpening your listening skills

The Art of Listening
ldquoI just want someone to listen to merdquo ldquoI want someone to hear how I really feelrdquo ldquoI want to be understoodrdquo These are all things we might have felt ourselves We donrsquot want someone to tell us how to do or what to do or what to think We just want to make our feelings known
There is an skill to listening We donrsquot all have it or we forget to use it But there is good news The ability to listen thoughtfully and carefully can be learned
On October 30 at our program at WoW the Stephen Ministry of the church will lead a session on how to really listen to another person It will be an abbreviated version of what our Stephen Ministers are taught with advice on how to value the needs of others by really listening to what they are saying both in words and in actions When we listen we elevate the feelings and needs of others above our own and value them for who they really are
People like to be understood Come learn some tips on how to understand what others are saying by sharpening your listening skills
