Chose costumes made of flame-resistant fabrics. Select soft, flexible props. |
|
| |
Swards, canes or sticks should not be sharp or too long. |
|
| |
Masks should not impair vision. | |
| |
Parents should accompany children walking door to door and ensure that trick-or treating is confined to familiar areas and stick to sidewalks. |
|
| |
When trick-or-treaters arrive home, check their candy. Discard spoiled, unwrapped or suspicious items. |
