Hungry goblins and elves are getting ready once again to go trick-or-treating in South Florida, and while Halloween is one of the most enjoyable evenings of any year, it’s important to remember that it can also be one of the most dangerous as well. Here are some easy-to-follow rules to keep this fun evening as safe as possible for trick-or-treaters of all ages: Children should be accompanied at all times by parents or responsible adults – no child or group of children should ever go trick or treating alone. Careless drivers represent the major threat for trick-or-treaters on Halloween night. Make sure to walk only on sidewalks, obeying all pedestrian and traffic laws. Children and the accompanying adults should all carry flashlights, and everyone should wear brightly colored costumes and/or reflective patches to increase visibility for the drivers. Children should be warned ahead of time to not consume any goodies while trick-or-treating; they must wait until the treats have been taken home and inspected by parents or adults in charge.
