JENKINTOWN, PA, October 07, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- PRE-HALLOWEEN PREP
· Plan costumes that are bright and reflective. Shoes should fit well and costumes should be short enough to prevent tripping, entanglement or contact with flames.
· Add reflective tape or striping to costumes and Trick-or-Treat bags for greater visibility.
· Mask should fit securely and allow proper site lines.
· Purchase non toxic makeup.
· Hats should fit properly and not slide over eyes.
· When shopping for costumes, wigs and accessories look for and purchase those with a label clearly indicating they are flame resistant. (For more information about flame resistant costumes, go to http://www.hiaonline.org)
· Swords, canes, or sticks should not be sharp or too long.
· Equip flashlights with fresh batteries.
· Provide cell phones and teach children how to call 9-1-1 if they have an emergency or become lost.
SHOWTIME: THE BIG NIGHT
· A parent or responsible adult should always accompany young children.
· Trick or Treat in the late afternoon or early evening.
· If your older children are going without adult supervision, plan and review the route, have them travel in a group and be clear about the time you expect them home.
· Only go to homes with a porch light on and never enter a home or car for a treat.
· Carry a cell phone.
· Remain on well-lit streets and always use the sidewalk.
· If no sidewalk is available, walk at the far edge of the roadway facing traffic.
· Never cut across yards or use alleys.
· Only cross the street as a group in established crosswalks. Never cross between parked cars or out driveways.
· Don't assume the right of way. Motorists may have trouble seeing Trick-or-Treaters. Just because one car stops, doesn't mean others will!
· Call the police to report suspicious or unlawful activity.
TAKING STOCK
· Inspect treats and discard with questionable appearances.
· Pace consumption and save treats for the days and weeks ahead!
