Have a Safe and Happy Halloweeeen!

My favorite part of Halloween is finding tiny trick-or-treaters at my door!

There really isn’t much that beats the tiny voices asking for a treat.  Does anyone remember those Miniature Little Golden Books that came in a bag?  I wish I could find them.   I would much rather give those out instead of candy..or maybe with a bit of candy.

Do  you remember when a pillow case served as your candy keeper when you went out?  Then, you would bring the stash home and systematically separate all of the different kinds of loot you received?  Chocolate was king.

No matter what kind of treats they may find, we all want to keep the kids safe every year.

Here are some reminders:

  • Check all of the candy to make sure it has not been opened.
  • Teal colored pumpkins on a porch will let you know there are treats for kid with food allergies inside.
  • Use reflective tape as part of the costume so children will be seen easily.
  • Take a final check of all costumes to make sure everyone can see to avoid accidents.
  • Slips, trips, and falls are common so make sure kids wear proper shoes or boots.

Have fun and be safe!
