Trick-or-Treating• Children younger than 12 years old should not be allowed to go trick or treating by themselves.

• If an older child or young teen is going out with friends, make sure that you know where they are going and who they are going with.

• Different cities have varying age limits for trick-or-treaters. Know your city’s ordinance.• Travel in groups. Make sure someone in the group carries a charged call phone.

• Wear bright, reflective costumes, carry glow sticks, flashlights, or add strips of reflective tape so you’ll be more visible; make sure the costumes aren’t long so that you don’t trip.

• Children should trick-or-treat only in well-lit areas and should only visit homes that have their outside lights turned on, no alleys or dark side streets.

• Talk to your children about strangers. Never, ever let your children go into a stranger’s house, car, and don’t let them talk to strangers unless you are with them or you say it’s okay.

• Be respectful of homeowner’s property. Do not traipse through yards - use sidewalks if possible.• Don’t eat candy until it has been inspected at home by an adult. It’s a good idea for trick-or-treaters to eat a

snack before heading out, so they won’t be tempted to nibble on treats that haven’t been inspected.
