Hold a flashlight while trick-or-treating to help you see and others see you. WALK and don’t run from house to house.

​

Always test make-up in a small area first. Remove it before bedtime to prevent possible skin and eye irritation.

​

Look both ways before crossing the street. Use crosswalks wherever possible.

​

Lower your risk for serious eye injury by not wearing decorative contact lenses.

​

Only walk on sidewalks whenever possible, or on the far edge of the road facing traffic to stay safe.

​

Wear well-fitting masks, costumes, and shoes to avoid blocked vision, trips, and falls.

​

Eat only factory-wrapped treats. Avoid eating homemade treats made by strangers.

​

Enter homes only if you’re with a trusted adult.

Only visit well-lit houses. Never accept rides from strangers.
