🎃 5 Halloween Safety Tips for trick-or-treaters! 👻
With all the excitement with costumes and getting candy, it's important to remember the little things (that aren't so little really) that help keep everyone safe tonight!
Before your family heads out for a night of trick-or-treating, here are five simple reminders to share with your kids.
👻 STICK TOGETHER Stay with your family or group, and make sure you know where your grown-ups are.
🍬 LET YOUR PARENTS CHECK YOUR CANDY Before digging into all those treats, have a parent take a quick look through your candy.
🚗 WATCH OUT FOR CARS Look both ways before crossing the street, use crosswalks, and pay attention to what's happening around you.
🏠 STAY OUTSIDE When trick-or-treating, stay on the doorstep. There's no need to go inside someone's home to get candy.
🔦 MAKE SURE YOU'RE VISIBLE Bring a flashlight, wear something reflective, or add a little glow to your costume so drivers can see you.
At our school, we talk a lot about awareness and making good decisions. Halloween is a great opportunity for kids to put those skills into practice outside the dojo!
Have fun, collect lots of candy, and most importantly, have a safe and HAPPY HALLOWEEN! 🎃
