🎃 Halloween safety goes beyond checking the candy.

Between costumes, trick-or-treating, parties, and all the excitement, Halloween is also a good opportunity to remind kids about boundaries, trusted adults, and speaking up when something doesn’t feel right. A few simple conversations can help kids feel safe and supported on Halloween and throughout the year.

Check out our Halloween safety tips for parents and caregivers and share with your network: https://www.nationalchildrensalliance.org/halloween-safety-goes-beyond-candy-keeping-kids-safe/
