Tips to Stay Safe This Halloween

Be safe this Halloween. Amador County Child Abuse Prevention Council has these safely tips for your kids: Trick or treat in your own neighborhood. Plan your route ahead of time with your parents. Stop only at houses that have lights on. Don’t go into a stranger’s house for any reason. If a stranger invites you inside, say “no,” get away, and tell a trusted adult. Remember to bring your older brother or sister or an adult you trust with you. Keep a flashlight or glow stick with you so that you can find you way. It’ll also help you show off your costume! Don’t eat your treats as you go. Instead, save them until you get home and your parents have had a chance to look through your bag of goodies. Have a safe and fun Halloween!
