13 Scary Tips For Trick-Or-Treating on Halloween!

We wish you you a happy, healthy Halloween! Here are some great tips to keep it fun:

1. Children should never trick-or-treat alone. They should always be accompanied by an adult.

2. Costumes should be flame retardant.

3. Wear reflective markings or tape on your costume or clothing.

4. Costumes should not drag on the ground and should not restrict eyesight.

5. Carry a flashlight.

6. Map out your trick-or-treat route and make sure the whole family knows what it is.

7. Hairspray and candles don't mix!

8. Walk, do not run.

9. Only trick-or-treat at houses with lights on.

10. NEVER go inside a strangers house while trick-or-treating.

11. Parents should let their child use their cell phone if possible and remind them to call home or 911 if an emergency arises.

12. Children should not touch any pets. Animals are not used to costumes and can be easily frightened.

13. Parents should check all candy before allowing children to eat.
