Halloween safety

From Safe Kids Worldwide:

  • Go with children younger than 12. Older children who go out alone should stick to familiar, well-lit areas and stay in groups.
  • Walk on sidewalks or paths. Where there is no sidewalk, walk facing traffic as far to the left as possible.
  • Cross at corners, using signals and crosswalks, and never between parked cars.
  • Put reflective tape or stickers on costumes and bags, and carry glow sticks or a flashlight.
  • Choose face paint over masks, which can block a child’s vision, and costumes that fit so they do not trip.

From the Food and Drug Administration:

  • Feed children before they go, and have them wait to eat any candy until you have checked it at home.
  • Throw away anything that is not commercially wrapped, or that shows pinholes, tears or discoloration.
  • For a child with a food allergy, read every label and skip home-baked treats.

What this means for you

  • No official hours have been set for Saturday, Oct. 31, so check with your neighborhood or homeowners association.
  • The free Boo Bash at the Morris, 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 25, is the easiest indoor option; after that, the city’s six remaining trunk-or-treats run Oct. 26-30.
  • Drivers: slow down in neighborhoods after dark that Saturday.
