As Halloween is approaching Near, I thought some safety tips from our favorite friends from Chuggington would be of use for you!! These are great things to talk about with your children over the next few days if you haven’t already!
As you begin to think about Halloween costumes and candy, we ask that you also take a moment to consider your little ghost or goblins safety as they walk around the neighborhood trick or treating on Halloween night. Does your child know to look left-right-left before crossing the street? Do you always encourage your trainee to hold your hand while walking? Here are a few other tips to consider, and share with your readers:
- Walk on the sidewalk.
- If there’s no sidewalk, walk facing traffic.
- No pushing or shoving when you walk.
- Don’t cross the street if a car is coming.
- Use a crosswalk if you can.
Chuggington has teamed up with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and has launched a national public service campaign that promotes traffic safety to young families called, ‘Think Safe. Ride Safe. Be Safe!”
They are focusing on four areas of traffic safety:
- Pedestrian Safety – Click here to see the colorful KoKo Flyer about Pedestrian Safety.
- School Bus Safety
- Bike Safety
- Car Seat Safety
The goal of the entire campaign is to educate and ultimately, save lives.

No tips yet, this is our first Haloween. Looking forward to learning some tips myself!
I would suggest light colored clothing, a flashlight, and adult supervision.

We have blinky red lights that attach to the costume, so that should help with visibility.
My safety tips are to wear bright colors, stay away from the main roads and always have an adult close by.
Safety Tips- stay in a busy neighborhood, trick or treat in a group and always carry a flashlight and stay on main roads.
When my kids were little one of the safety measures we took was to only go to houses with their porch lights on.
get a flashlight that the kids can walk with – they’ll enjoy it and passing motorists will see the lights
my tip is to hang a glow stick on the childs pail…so he can always be seen in the dark

We try to stay in well lit areas, stay together as a group and bring as many reflective and light up items as possible. One year we used peel off sheets of glow in the dark paper (it was a tricky getting it off the jackets)!

Never go alone and always bring a flashlight.
We stayed in our neighborhood and had lots of flashlights and glowsticks.

Together with every little thing which appears to be building inside this area, all your points of view happen to be fairly exciting. Even so, I beg your pardon, because I do not subscribe to your whole strategy, all be it refreshing none the less. It appears to me that your opinions are actually not totally validated and in simple fact you are generally your self not really wholly convinced of your point. In any case I did enjoy reading through it.
Good post. I be taught one thing more challenging on different blogs everyday. It can at all times be stimulating to read content material from other writers and observe somewhat one thing from their store. I’d desire to make use of some with the content on my blog whether or not you don’t mind. Natually I’ll provide you with a hyperlink on your net blog. Thanks for sharing.
When I initially commented I clicked the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now every time a remark is added I get 4 emails with the same comment. Is there any means you possibly can take away me from that service? Thanks!
