I can hardly believe it is already October! The warm weather here in New Orleans is making it difficult to get into the spirit of Fall, but my kids are more than ready for Halloween. So far, each of my daughters have picked a costume, switched their costume and re-picked a costume about ten times. With Halloween right around the corner, they will need to firm up a decision sooner rather than later.
With my daughters’ minds on costumes and candy, my mind is on keeping them safe. As a parent, my job is to keep Halloween fun and protect my kids from potential danger. Thanks to my friends at Rayovac, here are five tips to keep the kids safe while Trick or Treating:
- Carry a flashlight or wear a glow stick while walking around
- Trick or Treat in groups, with adults present
- Check candy before consuming
- Look both ways before crossing the street
- Costume and accessories should be short, soft and flexible
To make sure your kids are seen during the night, I love the Rayovac Value Bright Glow Stick Bundle. These unique glow sticks also include a flashlight which can be controlled separately. Unlike traditional glow sticks, these can even blink! Right now, you can use code GLOWSAVE to get 25% off the Glow Stick bundle which includes 3 sticks making the price only $7.49.
In addition to keeping the kids safe, as a parent, I like to carry my own flashlight while accompanying the kids Trick or Treating. I can light the way, alert cars of the kids and even check the candy in treat bags. Rayovac is also offering a great deal on the LED Twin Pack Flashlight to help you light the night. Get $3 off by using code TRICKORTREAT making the price only $5.99.
Have a Happy and Safe Halloween!
I need to look into those glowsticks for sure, it gets so dark so earl in Ohio. Thanks for the coupon!
Thank you so much for these tips! It’s so dark here at trick or treat time – makes me nervous.
Nice and easy tips. That’s why whenever I see the costume of the group of kids as shadows on Pinterest – completely in black – I shudder. Let the kids be easily seen!
Thanks for the tips! Love the idea of the glow sticks!
Super tips! I love the Glow Stick tip. My kids love those all the time, so for Halloween it will be super easy to get them to use.
