Tips for Halloween safety from DPD:
- Kids should wear bright-colored and reflective clothing, and/or carry a flashlight or glow sticks
- Ensure children can see while wearing their costumes and masks; opt for face paint rather than masks when possible
- Don’t let children go out alone. Have them walk with family and friends, and make sure there is a responsible adult with young children
- Inspect all candy before eating it and throw away any open or homemade treats
- Trick-or treaters should use sidewalks and crosswalks when available, and should look both ways before crossing streets
- Motorists should drive slowly through neighborhoods and watch for little ones who are trick-or-treating
- Adults who choose to drink alcohol or consume marijuana are encouraged to do so responsibly and plan for a safe ride home via designated driver, ride share, taxi or public transportation
