Halloween Safety
HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Just had to get that out there, but not only do I want all your kids to have a a happy Halloween. I want them to have a safe one. Like every parent, we want our kids to have fun, but, we want them to be safe. So here is my guideline to a safe and super cool Halloween.
Let's use my daughter as an example, she is dressed as Rosie the Riveter. Now, I know Rosie didn't have a mini side pouch. But my Rosie will. Why? Well I want my daughter to be able to have access to the following: a flashlight, mini scissors, matches, and some Germ X. I know why all the stuff, well each of these items can not only keep her safe. But, she can also use as self defense tools. Like, the Germ X; she could throw or rub that in her attackers eyes With the flashlight, she can find her way out of the dark, same with the matches. And with the the mini scissors, she can cut her out of a trap,and hurt her attacker. I recommend you don't give this to any child from the ages: 4-11. And, for all the girls who wanna be Disney Princesses, just strap this under your dress and there you have it. A safety kit to keep your kid in safe condition for the night. Especially if they are they type who hang out with friends instead of with you this kit is great for them.
You can find the stuff in the pouch, and the pouch itself at any dollar store.
Halloween is rough. I was reading on Facebook one my friend was checking her son's candy. She noticed the wrapper was open an she saw a thumb print. she examined the candy and saw it had a razor blade in it. It is very sad that someone wants to hurt kids.
ReplyDeleteHalloween is fun! But yes we must also always be aware of our surroundings you never know who is watching you and your kids and what people are capable of, that razor scenario is disgusting! How dare that person! It is also important to stick together. The children need to be visible to you. My little man had light on his shoes. When in large groups you have to pay even more attention it is easy for the children tot accidentally get lost or slip away. We had a great time and took all safety measures needed! Hope you all did too! :)
ReplyDeleteHalloween is such a fun holiday, but we should always consider safety first. I used to love going trick or treating as a child, but as time went by and I had my own children I saw all of the dangers and horrible people for what and who they really are. So I only take my kids to trunk or treats and the local Halloween festivals and they have the same fun. Unfortunately, things aren't the way that they used to be, where kids could go out in groups and have fun, but once again, we must consider the safety of our kids.
ReplyDeleteYou are totaly right obout Holloween and the dangers. What I do is, find some kind of safe festival or party. It is hard to have fun when you are being distracted by dangers.
