Grandmaster Shim's Healthy Halloween Safety Tips!
• Plan a safe route so parents know where their older kids will be at all times.
Set a time for their return home. Make sure they are responsible and carry a cell
phone in case of an emergency.
• Let your children know not to cut through back alleys and fields.
• Look both ways before crossing the street.
Use established crosswalks wherever possible.
• Instruct your child to never go into the home of a stranger or get into their car.
Explain why this is not a good idea.
• Avoid trick-or-treating alone. Walk in groups or with a trusted adult.
• Fasten reflective tape to costumes and bags to help drivers see you.
• Examine all treats for choking hazards and tampering before eating them.
Limit the amount of treats you eat.
• Hold a flashlight while trick-or-treating to help you see and others see you.
• Eat only factory-wrapped treats. Avoid eating homemade treats
unless you know the cook well.
• Try to ration treats for the days following Halloween.
