The Teal Pumpkin Project for Food...FARE (Food Allergy Research and Education) is promoting the use of a Teal Pumpkin to identify your house as somewhere that kids with food allergies can get non-food treats. This lets kids with food allergies, lactose intolerance, or other reasons they can't eat traditional candy treats know that they can safely trick-or-treat at your home.
Warning: Lights in a Damp PumpkinI felt a shock when touching a neighbor's pumpkin which used lights in the pumpkin. Caution is advised.
Keeping Halloween SafeDid you know that 4 times as many children ages 4-15 are killed on Halloween evening as compared to other evenings of the year? Falls are another leading cause of injury on Halloween. Follow these safety precautions and keep safe on this SCARY night.
Trick or Treating BagA white pillow case (or any old one will do) works really well for trick or treating...
Teach Your Child Halloween Safety,Before going trick or treating, go over the rules with your
children. Because it's an exciting night and emotions can
affect clear thinking and "remembering," go over them
several times.
