New Haven Police Offer Halloween Safety Tips

If they’re going on their own, agree with them the boundaries of the area they’ll explore, so you know where to look if they’re late back.

Watch for cars that are turning or backing up.

Instead of masks which can cover the eyes and make it hard to see, use face paint instead. Have everyone wear light-colored clothing to help be seen.

Each year cars line are parked on the church parking lot, and half of the expanse of the PGBC building.

Adults often party on Halloween night, which can lead to drunk and drugged driving, and even dangers fueled by costumes and the excitement of the night.

“Consider adding reflective tape to costumes and trick-or-treat bags for greater visibility”.

When selecting a costume, make sure it is the right size to prevent trips and falls. However, as long as you take steps to teach your kids pedestrian safety tips, you can protect them from things that go bump in the night!

In light of recent social-media “CLOWN” concerns – we recommend an alternative costume. Children are excited on Halloween and may move in unpredictable ways. Enter at the southwest ramp and exit at the northeast ramp.

Eliminate any distractions inside your vehicle so you can concentrate on the road and your surroundings.

This is a night to slow down, be extra cautious, and obey all traffic signs and signals.

Children can come out to the businesses of New Harmony for trick-or-treating from 3 to 5 p.m. October 26. “We love Halloween and hope that our tips help Americans either to scoop up as much candy as they possibly can or to enjoy their favorite scream-reel on Netflix without too many hair-raising interruptions”.

If your older children are going alone, plan and review the route that is acceptable to you.

Make sure all smoke alarms in the home are working. It goes into your cupboard and poses temptation not only for the kids, but also anyone looking for a sweet treat (that includes me!).

Over 300 little witches, devils, vampires, zombies, Star Wars characters, princesses and mermaids swarmed to St George’s International School on Saturday for a trick or treat event with a difference.
