Halloween Safety

• Discuss in advance the route you should follow. Call your parents if you plan to go on a street that isn’t on the route.
• Follow a curfew (and make sure you have a watch with you).
• Carry a white bag or pillowcase for your candy, and add some reflective tape.
• Dress for the weather. Cold weather or water absorbent materials in the rain can be very uncomfortable.
• Bring a cell phone if you can, in case you need to make an emergency phone call.
• Always travel in groups. Be sure there are at least 3 of you at all times.
• Let your parents know where you’re going to be at all times.
• Don’t visit houses that are not well lit. Never go inside a stranger’s house.
• Don’t criss-cross back and forth across the street. Work your way up one side of the street, and then start on the other.
