Halloween is a fun time of the year for kids, lets remember to be safe with these tips!
~Halloween starts by getting the right size costume. Too big could make a kid trip and fall and too small will restrict movement.
~Mask can block eye sight, mask free is the best way to go but if your child chooses a mask costume make sure the eye holes are big enough to see clearly out of.
~Try to stay away from dark costumes, or add reflective tape. (even a car going slow can kill a kid if hit)(We like to go all out with glow sticks, kids love them)
~Test all make up on skin before the night of Halloween. This way you will know if it irritates skin ahead of time.
~Remind kids to not eat any candy till it has been checked over.
~Do not let little kids go alone. (You would think that was be common sense but I was surprised to see how many were just let to go by themselves last year)
~Stick to side walks or paths
~Remind kids to never go into someones house.
~Skip over any dark houses.(no lights means no candy)
~Decided a trick or treat route ahead of time.
~Watch for cars backing out of driveways.
~When crossing streets..stop, listen, look both ways..make eye contact with drivers before crossing so you know for sure they see you.
Take a extra step, make sure any Halloween costume you use is flame retardant.
Stay safe!& Happy Halloween from my family to yours!
