It’s that time of year again, so here are some tips to make sure it’s as enjoyable and safe as possible.

DRESSING UP

  • Avoid loose fitting costumes to prevent trips and falls.
  • Try getting creative with make-up or face paint instead of wearing masks that can impair vision.
  • If a sword, cane, or lightsaber is a part of your child’s costume, make sure it is not sharp or too long. A child may be hurt if he/she stumbles or trips.

BEING SAFE AT HOME

  • Be careful of garden decorations, stones or anything hazardous that might trip your ghoulish visitors this year!
  • Make sure outdoor lights are working and replace old bulbs if necessary.
  • Keep pets indoors and safe – Halloween is an ever SCARIER night for them!
  • Do not leave lit pumpkins unattended or near flammable objects.

TRICK-OR-TREATERS

  • Stay in well-lit areas.
  • Look both ways crossing the road – do not take chances!
  • Bring a flashlight with you for getting home safely.
  • Never enter a stranger’s house even if invited.
  • If you have a mobile phone, carry it with you for emergencies.

From all of us at REGENESIS, have a fun and scary safe Halloween!
