There are steps people can take to create a safe Halloween for children and teens. Safer costumes include avoiding props that can cause injury to the body or eyes. Check cosmetics for safe use around eyes and test for allergic reactions. Also, avoid costume contact lenses unless their quality and safety can be confirmed. Safe trick-or-treating means staying visible, using crosswalks, and engaging in safety in numbers.

Halloween supply stores, party stores and other retailers that offer Halloween costumes and treats can help educate their customers about potential hazards and how to stay safe. Stores also can sponsor a Halloween safety page built with materials in both the Editorial and Creative libraries of MCC.com.
