Can’t Miss Insurance for Your College Student
Happy Halloween from Cook, Disharoon & Greathouse! While putting all the final touches on your costume and jack o’ lantern, it is vital to know how to stay safe during the holiday. Keep these Halloween safety tips in mind to ensure that everyone is safe during your holiday celebration.
- When decorating your house, do not place any decorations on the walkway of your home, since children can easy trip and injure themselves. Also, make sure to remove any other obstructions, such as toys and garden hoses.
- Use a battery operated candle or glow stick to light up your jack o’ lantern to prevent any accidental fires from starting.
- If your child’s costume includes a sword or knife, make it short and flexible, to help avoid any accidental injuries.
- When choosing the right costume for your child, choose one that fits properly to avoid tripping and falling while trick or treating. Don’t forget to dress them in comfortable shoes, since they will be walking long distances.
- Instead of wearing a mask to complete your costume, use face paint, as masks can obstruct their view. Test out the makeup on a small area of their skin before applying to make sure they do not have any allergies.
- Have your child carry a flashlight or wear a glow stick necklace to help them see in the dark and to make them more visible to passing drivers.
- Before you head out trick or treating, plan out your route. Choose neighborhoods that have sidewalks and that you are familiar with.
- Before allowing your child to enjoy their candy, make sure to look at each piece and throw out any that are open or look like they have been tampered with.
