Happy Halloween to the Ghouls and Goblins in Your Neighborhood!

...(and we're referring to the kids in costumes in case you are wondering).  For all those celebrating the Halloween holiday, don't forget the various activities that are available in Diamond Bar! Just wishing that all the kids and the grownups looking after them have a safe and fun Holiday!  The following are some safety tips that are good guidelines to follow:

• Help your child pick out or make a costume that will be safe. Make it fire proof, the eye holes should be large enough for good peripheral vision. Try to pick costumes that do not hinder their visibility or are too difficult to walk in. You don’t want a trip or fall to cause serious injury.

• If you set jack-o-lanterns on your porch with candles in them, make sure that they are far enough out of the way so that kids' costumes won't accidentally be set on fire. There are currently pumpkins on the market with lights within them that look like the real thing.

• Teaching your kids basic everyday safety such as not getting into cars or talking to strangers, watching both ways before crossing streets and crossing when the lights tell you to, will help make them safer when they are out Trick or Treating.
