Tips for A Safe and Happy Halloween

Second only to Christmas, the holiday that Kids look forward to the most is Halloween.  Picking out costumes, decorating Spooky places and eating candy corn.  Witches, ghosts and pumpkim-carving fun.

To ensure your child has a Safe and Happy Halloween, here are a few Tips.

• Make sure Costumes are the proper length so that your children are not tripping over their capes, pant legs or dresses.
• If a Mask will be worn, make certain the mask fits well and that your child can see well and breathe well.  Consider using nontoxic face paint instead of a face-covering mask.
• Take advantage of Reflective tape or Glow in the Dark accessories so that your child will be visible in the dark.
• Check Trick or Treat time schedule for your city or county.  Times and days for this activity vary greatly.
• Remind your kids to only go up to Houses that are Well Lit.  If there are no lights on they should skip those houses completely.
• Make a No Eating candy rule until candy has been inspected at home.
