Tonight is the night of ghosts and ghouls. In case you missed our Newsletter, here are some safety tips for keeping children safe:

- help your child pick a costume that is safe. Think fire proof, no loose material that could cause them to trip, make sure eye holes are large and don’t interfere with peripheral vision.

- Jack-o-lanterns: make sure if you have any on your porch they are out of the way of children.

- If your child is carrying a prop, make sure it won’t cause injury if he should fall.

- Kids love to help carve pumpkins but they shouldn’t be allowed to cut the top off. Let them clean out the inside and have them draw on the pumpkin, then you can cut it out. There are pumpkin kits available with saws and designs.

- Teach your kids basic safety: don’t talk to strangers, look both ways before crossing the street, follow traffic lights, and don’t eat any candy until you inspect it.

Hope you have a great Halloween and remember Safety First!
