Halloween can be a great opportunity for kids and parents to have a wonderful time together.

Dressing in a costume, going trick-or-treating with family and friends, and let’s not forget what it’s all really about – candy!

  • Dangers relating to costumes
  • Dangers relating to kids travelling alone, especially after dark
  • Dangers relating to healthy eating
