๐ŸŽƒ 5 Halloween Safety Tips for a Fun & Safe Night!

Stay Visible!
Use reflective tape, flashlights or glow sticks so drivers can see you after dark. ๐Ÿ’ก

Plan a Safe Route.
Stick to well-lit areas, sidewalks, and always use crosswalks.๐Ÿšธ

Check Costumes.
Ensure costumes fit well, avoid long hems that can trip you up, and opt for face paint over masks for improved visibility. ๐Ÿง™โ™€๏ธ

Inspect Treats.
Wait until youโ€™re home to eat candy and check for any wrappers that look unusual or opened. ๐Ÿฌ

Stay Together.
Trick-or-treat in groups or with a trusted adult. ๐Ÿ‘ป

Have fun, stay safe, and enjoy all the spooky sweetness this Halloween! ๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿ’›

Sometimes, connection means flexibility. Saying โ€œyesโ€ to small things, like a late-night snack or a spontaneous outing, shows her that you value time together.
