Trick-or-Treating Tips
We know Halloween can be a fun and exciting time for families, but it’s also a great opportunity to practice safety tips with your kids. Here are some trick-or-treating tips directly from our friends at the Bolingbrook Police Department.
- Avoid trick-or-treating alone. Walk in groups or with a trusted adult.
- Fasten reflective tape to costumes and bags to help drivers see you.
- Examine all treats for choking hazards and tampering before eating them.
- Hold a flashlight while trick-or-treating to help you see and others to see you.
- Always walk and don’t run from house to house.
- Look both ways before crossing the street. Use established crosswalks wherever possible.
- Only walk on sidewalks whenever possible or on the far edge of the road facing traffic to stay safe.
- Wear well-fitting masks, costumes and shoes to avoid blocked vision, trips and falls.
- Only eat factory-wrapped treats. Avoid eating homemade treats made by strangers.
- Enter homes only if you’re with a trusted adult.
- Never walk near lit candles or luminaries. Be sure to wear flame-resistant costumes.
