The Harris County’s Sheriff Office promotes Halloween safety for residents. The following are some tips to enjoy this Halloween safely.
Important Reminders for Parents
- Review rules with your children before trick-or-treating. - Make sure costumes are not hazardous for tripping, comfortableness, or impairing vision.
- Make sure props are safe for children.
- Stay with your children at all times.
- Walk in well-lit areas and carry a flashlight for adequate visibility.
- Drive slowly through residential areas and watch for trick-or-treaters.
- Inspect candy before eating or letting children eat
- Trick or treat in familiar areas
Review with your Children
- Stay with parent/guardian - Do not eat candy before your parent inspects it
- Do not enter houses while trick-or-treating
- If your costume is having problems, let your parent know
There are no city wide established trick-or-treating times, but you can check with your individual subdivision or village to find out when the people in your neighborhood are trick-or-treating. But remember to stay safe, and have fun!
