Halloween Safety Do's & Dont's


The nation’s leading authority on consumer product safety, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) reminds parents and caregivers about safety on Halloween.  

Injuries on this day and evening will likely include children falling due to unlit paths or costumes that restricts their ability to walk freely, to serious burns from open flames of Halloween lights mixed with flammable fabrics. In fact, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) says that Halloween is among the top 5 days of the year for candle-related fires.  

To avoid these hazards and enjoy a fund, safe holiday, read the Consumer Product Safety Commissions latest list of do’s and don’t on Halloween.
