- Remember to wear either a brightly lit costume or one that has reflective tape.
- Ensure that costume does not impair the child’s ability to see or walk.
- Small children should be accompanied by an adult while trick or treating.
- It is always a good idea to trick or treat within one’s own neighborhood.
- Always inspect any treats that are received by your child prior to it being consumed.
