Parents should keep the following tips in mind to ensure everyone stays safe and has a spooky good time:

• Stay in groups.
• Always stay on sidewalks when possible.
• Flashlights or glowsticks can help with visibility.
• A responsible adult should accompany young children.
• If your older children are going alone, plan and review a route acceptable to you. Agree on a specific time when they should come home. Remind children to travel only in familiar, well-lit areas.
• Put electronic devices down, keep heads up and walk, don't run, across the street.
• Examine all treats before eating them.
