Halloween Safety Tips

Brought to you by RMC Parents As Teachers

Halloween is always a fun and exciting time for our youth. Regional Medical Center (RMC) Parents As Teachers want everyone to have a fun, safe holiday!

Please keep in mind these safety tips and review them with your child(ren):

  • Always monitor pumpkin carving
    Children younger than 5 should not use carving knives. Have them paint or decorate pumpkins instead!
  • Remind children of street safety
    Children should always use sidewalks. Remind them to look both ways and look again before crossing a street. Add reflective tape to their costume or give them a flashlight to walk with.
  • Check candy when you get home
    Closely examine candy after trick or treating. Throw away any that are unwrapped, have tears or pinholes, or look suspicious.
