HALLOWEEN SAFETY TIPS
Here are some tips to
make your Halloween safe, as well as fun:
| 1. | Costumes should be of
a light color, or should have reflective areas so the wearer can be seen in the dark. | |
| 2. | Costumes should be
flame-retardant, and not too baggy or long to cause tripping. | |
| 3. | Masks, wigs, and hoods
should not obstruct the child's vision. If they do, use face makeup instead. | |
| 4. | Children should
trick-or-treat while it is still light, or should carry a flashlight or glowstick if it is dark. | |
| 5. | Children shouldn't go
trick-or-treating alone. An adult or teenager should accompany them. | |
| 6. | Parents should know
where the children will be trick-or-treating, and the route they will take. | |
| 7. | Children should walk
on the sidewalks. If there is no sidewalk walk on the side of the road, facing oncoming traffic. | |
| 8. | An adult should check
all candy before allowing children to eat it. | |
