  • If you or your kids are wearing a mask, make sure the eye holes are large enough that they can be seen through them clearly.
  • Do not allow your children to carry lit candles while they trick-or-treat. Instead, use a flashlight.
  • Remember that cornstalks, crepe paper and similar materials are all very flammable. Keep them away from all sources of open flames like candles and bonfires.
  • Use a battery-operated candle or flashlight inside of a Jack-o’-lantern.
  • Teach your children how to react if their clothing catches on fire: STOP, DROP AND ROLL!
