Top Halloween Safety Tips

  1. Go in groups and stick to familiar neighborhoods. Bring a phone and plan your route.

  2. Stay outside—accept treats only at the door and avoid entering homes.

  3. Be visible with reflective tape, light-colored costumes, and flashlights or glow sticks.

  4. Choose comfort and safety: use face paint instead of masks and make sure costumes fit properly.

  5. Cross carefully: use crosswalks, stay alert for cars, and walk—don’t run.

  6. Check your candy before eating and discard anything unwrapped or suspicious.
