The American Red Cross has ten tips parents can follow to help keep their kids safe while enjoying the Halloween festivities.
- Trick-or-treaters need to see and be seen. …
- Use flame-resistant costumes.
- Make sure adults know where the kids are going. …
- Be cautious around animals, especially dogs.
- Walk, don’t run.
- Only visit homes that have a porch light on. Accept treats at the door – never go inside.
- Walk only on the sidewalks, not in the street.
– If no sidewalk is available, walk at the edge of the roadway, facing traffic.
– Look both ways before crossing the street, and cross only at the corner.
– Don’t cut across yards or use alleys.
– Don’t cross between parked cars.
– Drivers – use extra caution. The youngsters may forget to look both ways before crossing. - A grown-up should check the goodies before eating.

If you are planning to welcome Halloween trick-or-treaters to your home, follow these safety steps: - Light the area well so young visitors can see.
