Feed everyone before heading out and take some treats with you to avoid temptation. 2. Use non-toxic face paint, avoid masks and heavy, over- large costumes that will make walking difficult. 3. Use reflective tape, glowsticks and flashlights to make sure everyone is seen. 4. Make sure your children know how to cross roads safely: cross on corners. Make sure they stay on well- lit sidewalks and only visit homes that have their porch lights on. 5. Warn your children of dangers: do not go inside anyone’s home or car for any reason. 6. If you are not going with them, give your child a cell phone, know what routes they are taking and have a plan for when you are picking them up. Do not let children go out alone. Groups are safer. 7. Pay attention to your driving too. Drop your speed and be alert to kids darting from between cars. Ignore your electronic devices while driving. 8. Check all candy before letting your children eat it, throw out all homemade treats unless you know the source, and remove all makeup before going to bed. Costumes! There are all the favorites for 2017: Wonder Woman, Alice in Wonderland, Beauty and the Beast, Avengers, cats, bats, witches, gypsies, vampires and zombies. You can also mix old with the new and make a hybrid, or use a weird wig to change a costume’s look. If you are on the cheap, Pinterest and plenty of websites have ideas to use what you have and make something cute with little to no money. There’s a growing trend to wear all one color (usually an all-black outfit) and do a spectacular makeup job on all exposed skin. Sites like totalbeauty.com, elleuk.com and stayglam.com, along with Pinterest have so many ideas, you’ll lose a day of your life perusing if you aren’t careful. Include your pet (provided they can behave in public with all the action) and really expand your weenie horizons (no chocolate! POISONOUS for dogs and cats!).
