Rules for Goblins and Ghouls
~Halloween Safety Tips~
We hope you and your family have a happy and safe Halloween. While you are watching out for witches, ghosts, and goblins please remember a few safety tips so that you and your family has a safe and fun Halloween.
- Your children should be closely supervised by adults.
- Older children should go out in groups, never alone.
- Use flashlights and reflective clothing to make certain you are visible to cars.
- Always walk facing traffic (on the left side of the road). Take care when crossing streets.
- Walk - do not run on dark streets and driveways.
- Limit visits to homes of neighbors you know.
- Limit visits to homes that have their front porches lit with a welcoming light. Politely choose one piece of candy when you are offered a selection.
- Remember to kindly thank those who offer treats.
- Wear makeup instead of masks if you need to decorate your face.
- Be sure your costumes are comfortable and easy to walk in.
- Wear comfortable shoes.
- Refrain from eating candy while out trick or treating.
- Once home, adults should help younger children to sort candy and be sure all wrappers are in tact. Older children should do this too.
- Be extra careful of flowing costumes near open flames such as jack-o-lanterns.
Have a goblin good time!
