The last few years have been weird especially when it’s come to Halloween.
This year seems like we are finally getting back to some normalcy.
However, if you’re still nervous about getting sick in any way (no judgement here) I get it.
And that is where this candy slide comes into play.
The people from Wicked Makers on YouTube designed an amazing Halloween candy slide that you can build!
The idea of the candy slide keeps the 6 feet social distance, but allows the kids to still collect candy from you!
All they have to do is hold their candy bag or bucket at the end of the slide and the candy will fall right in! They don’t have to touch anything or even get close to people.
The DIY Halloween Candy slide is made with PVC pipe and fittings, spray paint, mummy wrapping, and a fake skeleton!
They were going with a mummy theme, but I am sure you could come up with other designs as well.
Maybe you could make it a neighborhood competition for the best candy slide!
It seems super simple to build! You don’t even need power tools, although that would make it faster!
You can cut PVC with a hacksaw and they do demonstrate that in the video.
You can watch the video below to see how it’s made!

Made a candy shoot out of pvc and even at a high incline the candy isn't sliding through, it gets stuck half way down. Any suggestions?

meanwhile ,the virus can be on the actual candy wrappers.. so there's an extra step in the spread... be sure to soak your candy in 80 proof liquor before you eat it!!!
