The Ontario Provincial Police are offering some tips to be safe on Halloween.

•  Make up is preferable to a mask. If a mask is going to be worn, enlarge the eye and mouth holes for your child’s safety.
• Carry a flashlight and wear reflective clothing.
• Small children should be supervised at all times.
• Stay in neighbourhood’s that you know.
• Use sidewalks or the edge of the roadway.
• Don’t cut across lawns; you won’t see a hose or a rake in the dark.
• Walk; don’t run, to houses that are lit up for Halloween.
• Don’t snack on treats until they are inspected by a responsible adult.
• Ensure pumpkins lit by a candle are in a safe location.
• Trick or treating in a vehicle? Wear your seatbelt.
