– Walk carefully on sidewalks, marked paths, and crosswalks at corners
– Make sure that none of the treats are tampered with or contain choking hazards before you start eating them
– Remind children to never go into anyone’s house without their chaperone
– Carry a flashlight
– Make sure costumes are made of flame resistant materials
– Don’t overload electrical outlets or extension cords with holiday lighting or special effects
