Halloween Safety Tips For Our Pell City, AL Ghost and Goblins

                                                                                                                                                                         


I can remember the feeling of being a fairy-tale princess knocking on the doors in my neighborhood on Halloween. With so much excitement in the air, we were anticipating delicious treats from all the homes in the community. As an adult with delightful memories of Halloween, I enjoy watching the children come to my Pell City home for trick-or-treat. Each year it amazes me at the number of children who trick-or-treat without being accompanied by an adult. Parents be responsible and keep your children safe.  Below are some safety tips for your little ghost and goblins.

• Cars kill when they cannot see a child on a dark Pell City, AL street. Use reflective tape on all costumes.
• Go trick-or-treating in Pell City in groups; this improves your visibility to vehicles. Remember safety in numbers.
• Keep the costume short to avoid tripping when going up and down porch steps.
• All costumes should be flame-resistant.
• Use paint on the child's face instead of a mask, so their vision is not obstructed.
• Parents supervise and accompany your children while they are trick-or-treating in Pell City, AL.
• Know the neighborhood and watch your children while they are at all doors.
• If the front porch light is not on, do not approach the home.
• Never allow a child to enter any home while trick-or-treating.
• Check your child's candy to make sure it has not been tampered with and is safe to eat.

Remember safety comes first with your ghosts and goblins in Pell City, AL, this Halloween.
