If your youngster is looking to maximize his or her candy score this year, give them a pillowcase instead of one of those cute trick or treat buckets. My Science Project, who did the pumpkin experiment we linked to yesterday, has also done a scientific look at candy carrying apparatuses and has found that pillowcases are the way to go for maximum candy loading. Of course, if your kiddo isn’t strong enough to carry up to forty pounds of candy, size might not matter in the long run.
