Police Approved Safety Tips for Halloween Developed by Amber Alert Registry Ensures Safe Trick-or-Treating
AmberAlertRegistry.org recommends tips to ensure safety for young children this Halloween.
Boca Raton, FL (PRWEB) October 8, 2008 -- AmberAlertRegistry.org, a leader in helping protect children, has worked with several police departments to produce Halloween safety tips for parents and young children for trick-or-treating.
Halloween Safety Tips Include:
| | - Children shouldn't snack while they're out trick-or-treating. They should wait until they get home and parents have had a chance to inspect the goodies.
- When children bring their treats home, discard any home-made candy or baked goods. Parents of young children should also remove any choking hazards such as gum, peanuts, hard candies or small toys.
- If your older children are going alone, plan and review the route that is acceptable to you. Agree on a specific time when they should return home.
- Only go to homes with a porch light on, and to ensure Halloween safety, never enter a home or car for a treat.
- Stay in a group and communicate where they will be going.
- Carry a mobile phone for quick communication.
- Remain on well-lit streets and always use the sidewalk.
- Only cross the street as a group in established crosswalks. Never cross between parked cars or driveways.
- *For the entire list, visit the AmberAlertRegistry.org website.
