When walking in neighborhoods to be safe on Halloween –
- · Use flashlights, stay on sidewalks, and avoid crossing yards.
- · Cross streets at the corner, use crosswalks (where they exist), and do not cross between parked cars.
- · Stop at all corners and stay together in a group before crossing.
- · Wear clothing that is bright, reflective, and flame retardant.
- · Consider using face paint instead of masks. (Masks can obstruct a child's vision.)
- · Avoid wearing hats that will slide over their eyes.
- · Avoid wearing long, baggy, or loose costumes or oversized shoes (to prevent tripping).
- · Be reminded to look left, right, and left again before crossing the street.
