Keep Halloween Fun, and Stay Safe Doing It
Halloween should be full of costumes, laughter, and candy — not preventable injuries. Whether you’re out trick-or-treating, driving through your neighborhood, or welcoming visitors to your home, a little extra care goes a long way in keeping everyone safe.🎃 Trick-or-Treating Tips
- Add reflective tape to costumes and carry a flashlight.
- Stay on sidewalks and cross only at corners or crosswalks.
- Accompany younger children, and keep group sizes small so adults can stay alert.
- Inspect candy before eating, and discard anything unwrapped.
🚗 Safety for Drivers
- Slow down and stay alert in residential areas.
- Avoid distractions — children can appear suddenly between parked cars.
- Use extra caution during peak trick-or-treating hours (5:30–9:30 p.m.).
🏠 At-Home Safety
- Keep porches and walkways well-lit and free of obstacles.
- Use flameless candles in pumpkins instead of open flames.
- Secure pets indoors to avoid startles or accidental bites.
