Make trick or treating safe this Halloween
Average rating:
Set ground rules if you are allowing older children to go trick or treating:
- Don't knock on a house more than once and no knocking on windows
- Agree what tricks they will use - you may have to ban some!
- Remind them to be polite and considerate - help them to understand that some people may be frightened or trying to get babies to sleep
- Set a time they have to be home and agree what area/streets/houses they can go to
- To avoid scaremongering casually remind them not to go in strangers - houses and to run and tell someone if they are worried about anything
