5 Halloween Safety Tips for Young Trick or Treaters
- 5 years ago
1. Plan a route in advance
Avoid long paths by mapping out a route and stick to ones you and your child are familiar with.
2. Use the buddy system
If your older child is venturing out without you, make sure that he or she will be with at least a few friends
the entire night.
3. Stay on the sidewalk
Make sure your kids are following basic safety rules, such as looking both ways before crossing the street.
4. Carefully check candy
Throw away any candy that is not sealed with a wrapper and avoid homemade treats received
from strangers.
5. Makeup safety
If makeup is a part of your child’s costume, make sure it is non-toxic. Before your child goes to bed, make sure
to remove all makeup.
