🎃 Halloween Safety Tips for Families 🎃

1. Costume Safety
Choose light-colored or reflective costumes.
Make sure costumes, shoes, and accessories fit properly to prevent trips and falls.
Use flame-resistant materials and soft or flexible props instead of sharp objects.

2. Trick-or-Treating Safety
Children under 12 should have an adult escort; older kids should go in groups.
Stick to familiar, well-lit neighborhoods.
Cross streets at corners, not mid-block.

3. Candy Safety
Check for unopened packaging and avoid homemade treats from strangers.
Be cautious of allergens (nuts, gluten, etc.).
Limit candy intake to prevent stomach issues.

4. Home Safety
Keep walkways clear of cords, decorations, or trip hazards.
Make sure front porches and pathways are well-lit.
Use battery-operated lights inside pumpkins instead of candles.

5. Vehicle Awareness
Watch for kids darting out between parked cars.
Slow down in residential neighborhoods and follow traffic laws.
