Halloween is coming up, and while everyone's having a blast, it's always a good idea to remind yourself of some ways to keep the kidlets safe.  Here's just a few common sense safety tips:

• Dress your children in bright clothes
• Make sure the costume mask does not block the child’s vision.
• Go out early and stay in groups.
• Chaperone all of the young children.
• Warn your children not to run into the street from between parked cars.
• Tell your children to stay on well lighted streets in your neighborhood.
• Give all of your treaters a flashlight to carry.
• Stay on the sidewalks or walk facing the traffic.
• Be sure and check the treats your children bring home.

It's no fun if everybody isn't safe!
