Halloween is Saturday and it looks like perfect weather for trick or treating.

Review these tips from the National Safety Council one final time to make it a safe and happy Halloween.

Costume Tips

• All costumes, wigs and accessories should be fire-resistant.
• If children are allowed out after dark, fasten reflective tape to their costumes and bags, or give them glow sticks.
• Use nontoxic Halloween makeup instead of masks, which can obscure vision; always test makeup in a small area first to see if any irritation develops.
• Remove all makeup before children go to bed to prevent skin and eye irritation.

Trick-or-Treat Tips

• A responsible adult should accompany young children on the neighborhood rounds.
• If your older children are going alone, plan and review a route acceptable to you.
• Agree on a specific time children should return home.
• Teach your children never to enter a stranger's home or car.
• Instruct children to travel only in familiar, well-lit areas and stick with their friends.

Have a safe and Happy Halloween!
