Halloween

Who would have thought 30 days ago with the triple digit temperatures we were experiencing that I would be writing about the fast approaching holidays? But, here we are preparing to greet some ghosts and goblins at our door and shortly thereafter, we will be celebrating Thanksgiving and Christmas. Wow! How the year has flown!


With all the costume making, food preparation and shopping comes a much more hectic pace! Amid all the hustle and bustle and family celebrations let’s not forget to focus on how we can keep our home and family safe.

For Halloween:

*Candles in Jack O’Lanterns should be off the ground and out of children’s reach.

* Halloween home safety means keeping the area around your home unobstructed so children and accompanying parents don’t stumble or hurt themselves on anything that may lead to a liability suit. Clear any lawn decorations, hoses, gardening tools, toys, etc., from your property to practice Halloween home safety.

Take this fun POP QUIZ with your ghosts and goblins to ensure they know how to remain safe on Halloween.

Stay tuned for Thanksgiving & Christmas safety tips!
