Spooky Season is among us and Halloween is fast approaching. We would love to share some wonderful safety tips for Trick Or Treating to make sure everyone stays safe and has fun as well. We hope you find these useful.
- Cross the street at corners, using traffic signals and crosswalks. Look left, right, and left again when crossing and keep looking as you cross.
- Trick or Treat with an adult. Children under the age of 12 should not be alone at night without adult supervision.
- Keep costumes both creative and safe. Decorate costumes and bags with reflective tape and, if possible, choose light or bright colors. Also, choose face paint and makeup instead of masks whenever possible. Have kids carry glow sticks or flashlights as well.
- Drive extra safe on Halloween. Slow down and be especially alert in residential neighborhoods.
- Try to only Trick or Treat at houses with brightly lit porches.
- Children should memorize their home phone number and address in case of an emergency. Include a communication card with contact and medical information in your child's costume.
- Make sure to tell your children not to share candy with friends that have food allergies. Also, parents should examine all candy for strange lumps, smells, rips, defects, and expirations dates
