Halloween is a fun-filled, spooky and sweet holiday devoted to children. Halloween is also a potentially dangerous event, but can be avoided with awareness and forethought.

Here are some tips to having a safe Halloween:

Ø   Choose light-colored costumes or use retro-reflective tape on the costume and treat bag that are visible in the dark to both pedestrians and vehicles.

Ø    Use makeup rather than a mask so it is easier to see.

Ø    Trick-or-treat while it is still light outside.

Ø    Have an older sibling or parent go with young children and have older children trick-or-treat in a group.

Ø    Plan your trick-or-treat route ahead of time on streets that are well lit, and always stay on the sidewalk.

Ø    Carry a flashlight, and always cross streets at corners, never from between parked cars or mid-block.

Ø    Look left, right, and left again; look and listen for traffic before crossing the street.

Ø    Never go into a stranger’s house.

Ø    Have children wait until they get home to sort, check and eat their treats.

Ø    Throw away any treats that are not wrapped and sealed by a food company.

Ø    Notify the Sheriff’s Department at 949-770-6011 if you find any suspicious treats.
