Safety at Halloween for kids
Parents can help prevent children from getting injured at Halloween by following these safety tips from the American Academy of Pediatrics, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Safety Council.
Children should–
- · Go only to well-lit houses and remain on porches rather than entering houses.
- · Travel in small groups and be accompanied by an adult.
- · Know their phone number and carry coins for emergency telephone calls.
- · Have their names and addresses attached to their costumes.
- · Bring treats home before eating them so parents can inspect them.
- · Use costume knives and swords that are flexible, not rigid or sharp.
