A Doctor's Guide to a Spooktacular Halloween
Briefly

Costumes should be brightly colored to ensure visibility, and fit properly to enable easy movement. Make sure masks don’t obstruct their view and opt for non-toxic makeup.
Younger children should always be accompanied by a responsible adult, while teens should have a clear plan for trick-or-treating, including a safe route and expected return time.
Street safety is critical as more pedestrian accidents happen on Halloween; children must walk on well-lit roads, use crosswalks, and wear visible clothing.
Motorists must be vigilant, especially at dusk, watching for children in dark clothing, and inexperienced drivers should be discouraged from being on the roads.
