Its no secret that kids love Halloween, so ensure a safe one in Oakley, CA this year!
Halloween is the perfect holiday for kids to dress up, indulge in sweets, greet the neighborhood, and enjoy the excitement that comes with the season! Young children or enthusiastic children can often forget the simple rules that ensure safety.
For a safe Halloween, keep these tips in mind:
- Walk Safely
Simple steps are: crossing the street at designated crosswalks, looking both ways before stepping onto the road, always walking on sidewalks, and teaching children to be aware of turning cars and making eye contact with drivers before crossing. - Adult Supervision
Young children should never trick-or-treat alone, but always have adult supervision. Adults can guide them to the correct streets, neighborhoods, and houses. - Costume Safety
Be sure that your child only uses plastics props, carries a flashlight, avoids masks, and does not have any dragging material that may cause a trip or a fall. - Driving Cautiously
If you are your child are doing the rounds of multiple neighborhoods, be sure that many children will be out trick-or-treating on Halloween night. Slow down, look for children who may dart out, and eliminate any distractions in the car so that you are focused.
