MAKE A PLAN BEFORE THE FUN BEGINS
Take a current photo after the costume in on, before leaving home.
Place one adult at the front, and one at the back.
Choose a meeting spot and make sure every child knows the safe adult’s phone number.
Older children should stay in groups and avoid shortcuts through yards and alleys.
Put a guardians phone number inside of your child’s costume.
Use LED candles
Clear cords, decorations and wet leaves from walkways.
Carry needed allergy medication and check treats before eats.
Keep pets in a closed room away from the doors, costumes, and candy.
Add reflective material to the front, back and sides, not just the treat bag.
Use face paint when a mask limits side vision or hearing.
Keep costumes away from fire and avoid trailing fabric.
Confirm the exact address and whether or not a safe adult will be there.
Choose a family code word that means “Call me or come pick me up now”.
Set specific check in and pick up times not just “later”.
Pack a phone charger.
Never ride with an impaired or distracted driver.
