The department has released a list of safety tips for parents and children this halloween:
• Talk to your children about being safe! Always supervise your children while they are trick or treating.
Wear light-colored clothing that’s short enough to prevent tripping and add reflective tape to the sides, front and back of the costume.
• Make sure children can see well through facemasks or use cosmetics to create fun or scary faces.
• Carry a flashlight after dark.
• Trick or Treat in your neighborhood or visit homes you know,
• This is one of the busiest times of the year, so if you are operating a vehicle, be alert, put down your cell phone and pay attention to your surroundings. If you are walking, watch for traffic, check and double check before crossing streets, “pay attention.”
• Only give and accept wrapped or packaged candy.
• Examine all candy before allowing children to eat it.
