Tips To Help Your Kids Stay Safe This Halloween

One of the most favorite holidays of the year is Halloween (especially for kids). Most of them look forward to this period for weeks and months, as they take their time to plan their costume, the type of candy they want most and where to trick or to treat. As fun as Halloween can be the same as it can be dangerous – if care is not taken. Most kids are so cut up in the moments thinking about candy and mask making them less aware of their surroundings. So, as to the make sure your kids are safe during, this period we have listed below some tips to help make sure that your kids don't become accident statistics.

1.    Select Safe Costumes

IT is very important when choosing Halloween costume that you choose the ones that are made from vibrant colors. Doing this will make it easy for your child to be easily seen in the dark.

2.    Face Masks

Have you for once sit down and ask what face mask are made from and if they are healthy for the person wearing it? Well, most face masks are safe, but there are still some that contain toxic chemicals and may not be safe. So, when choosing a mask, you need to make sure it is safe and its not obstructing your child sight. It is because of this reason that you want to be sure your child can easily see clearly, without interference in sight.

3.    Flashlights & Glow Sticks

We don’t have to dwell much on this, as you are already know the need for ensuring your son or daughter can be seen at nighttime. Kids likes to play and they might run out of the road without looking, so it is advisable that you get them a flashlight or a glow stick that will make sure drivers see your child if this happens. It’s even interesting that there are fun character flashlights and varied choices of glowsticks you can choose from and not the basic flashlight from home, as this will interest your child.

4.    Stay Out of The Road

Just as we stated earlier on kids can tend to stray toward walking in the road instead of on the sidewalk; so as a parent you need to advise them to stick to sidewalk and be safe. On Halloween there might be a lot more traffic driving through neighborhoods carrying treaters or trick.

5.    Stay In Groups    

You can have a discussion with another parent to allow the kids to go in a group and not alone. There is safety in numbers, so the more kids, the safer they will be. So, make sure your children go out in groups of at least three kids.

Following these tips will help make sure everyone has a safe and fun Halloween.
