Halloween is tomorrow! 🎃 Before the costumes go on and the candy buckets come out, take a minute to review a few safety tips with your family:
✅ Plan a safe, well-lit trick-or-treating route ahead of time, and consider adding reflective tape to costumes or candy bags.
✅ Don’t go alone. Stay with younger children and make sure they never enter a home without you. Older kids should carry a charged cellphone with emergency contacts saved.
✅ Check all candy before eating to make sure it hasn’t been tampered with.
✅ Keep the lines of communication open. Know where your children are and who they’re with, and encourage them to tell a safe adult if they ever feel uncomfortable.
From all of us at The Child Advocacy Center of Greater Rochester, we wish you a safe and happy Halloween!
