Adult Supervision

Adult supervision is a must at all times

Don’t let your kids go trick-or-treating alone — even if it’s just around the block or in your building If you can’t go, plan to have some adult supervision by

conferring with the parents of your children’s friends

Some of your neighbors may be having a party, and there’s no way of knowing what kind of crowd they’ll be hosting

Make sure there’s at least one adult accompanying the kids when they go on their candy-collection mission

Plan a Route — and Stick to It

Plan a route to follow when you go trick-or-treating with a group of children Don’t just set out before thinking of the houses that

you’ll visit

Explaining the route to the older kids should be enough

For the younger ones, draw a route map, and put it in their pockets

A route plan helps keep everyone in sync and avoids children running amok in excitement
