Parenting Tips from the Old Educator

CELEBRATE HALLOWEEN

	Be sure your child's costume is age appropriate. Too many buttons and strings on baby's or toddler's costumes may present a choking hazard. Avoid any long tails or material hanging off costumes that may cause a child to trip or catch on fire if it gets too close to a lighted pumpkin.
	Remain highly visible. Carry a flashlight or glow stick, or wear reflective tape.
	Trick-or-treat only in the neighborhood with which you are familiar, and don't go out alone.
	Make sure your costume falls no lower than your ankles to avoid tripping and falling.
	Use crosswalks. Look both ways when crossing the street and do not cross from behind parked cars.
	Carry a slip of paper with your name, address and phone number in case you get separated from your group.
	Discuss with your parents what time you will be home.
	Never go into strangers' homes.
	Dispose of any candy with loose wrappers — “When in doubt, throw it out!”
