Crime Prevention Tips

The following crime prevention tips can help make

Halloween safe and more enjoyable for everyone:

• Do not leave your home unattended;

• Keep your pet(s) indoors or other in another safe

place;

•Walk through your neighborhood with others to dis

courage acts of malicious mischief and speeding

motorists;

• Set a specific time limit for your child/children to

be out;

• Only give homemade treats to children you know.

Make sure the treats are properly wrapped;

• Give commercially wrapped treats to children you

do not know;

• Instruct your children to never enter the home of a

stranger;

• Never invite children into your home;

• Instruct children not to stray from their group;

• Children should never be allowed to go out alone;

• Always know who your children are with;

• Always escort your children. If you cannot escort

your children, you should select another trusted

adult to escort them;

• Adult escorts should carry flashlights;

• Children should walk, not run, to avoid tripping;

• Children should never accept rides from strangers;

• Turn your porch light on to let children know it's

all right to visit your home;

• Instruct your children to stay in their own

neighborhood and to trick or treat at homes that

have porch lights on

• Know the exact routes your children will take;

• Children should never take shortcuts through

backyards, alleys or parks;

• Children should carry trick or treat bags that have

strong straps or handles. This allows a child to

carry the bag in one hand, leaving the other hand

free;

• Children should wear identification bracelets;

• Children should trick or treat during daytime

hours;

• At night, children should stay on well-lit streets;

• Children should wear costumes made of white or

light colored material. The costumes should be

fireproof. If the costume is made of dark material,

attach reflector tape on the costume to increase

nighttime visibility;

• Children should wear comfortable, proper fitting

costumes and shoes. Oversized costumes, shoes,

boots or loose fitting high heels can make it difficult

for children to walk.

 

Safety Tips

Props, such as toy guns, swords and knives

should be made of soft rubber, Styrofoam, cardboard

or other pliable material. Replica firearms that could

be mistaken for real firearms should be avoided. If

your child carries a jack-o'-lantern, a flashlight should

be placed inside, not a candle. Children should use

non-allergenic facial makeup instead of masks. Make

sure you apply a thin coat of cold cream before

application of any makeup. The makeup will come

off easier if you do this. Masks can restrict vision. If

your child wears a mask, make sure he/she removes it

when he/she crosses a street. Older children should

attend an adult-supervised Halloween party, instead

of going out to trick or treat. Younger children may

enjoy attending an adult supervised Halloween party

instead of going out to trick or treat.

Children should look in all directions before

crossing the street and should obey all traffic signals.

Children should always walk on sidewalks and not on

streets. Children should cross streets at corners. They

should never cross streets between parked cars, in the

middle of blocks or diagonally across intersections;

and streets in rural areas without sidewalks should be

avoided. If there are no sidewalks, children should

stay as far left of the roadway as possible anwalk facing

traffic.

Halloween is a time for ghosts and goblins

and fun with your friends. Almost everybody is nice,

but sometimes a few people play mean tricks on

children at Halloween. These tricks include putting

dangerous things in candy and treats.

As always, please feel free to call or email me.
