PAGE ONE- Every year on October 31 a special holiday comes around called Halloween. Halloween is not only a time for fun and dressing up, but most importantly... safety. There are several ways to stay safe on Halloween and this book was made to help you see how.

PAGE TWO/THREE- When getting ready for your night out, make sure to find an awesome costume. Whether your a ladybug, a pirate or a flower make sure all of your costumes are lightly colored. This prevents cars from not being able to see you crossing the street. Also, make sure to wear layers! Long sleeves and pants under a costume will help you prevent yourself from getting sick.

PAGE FOUR/FIVE- Before going out make sure its a reasonable time to be going out. If you are younger make sure that you are leaving around seven or sooner so you have plenty of time to get candy. Also, make sure that you get a group together to go out. Halloween wouldnt be what it is without a group of friends with you. Just make sure that there is an adult with you at all times. You never know who will be out on Halloween and an adult will always keep you safe.

PAGE SIX/SEVEN- Crossing the street is always a dangerous thing, but on Halloween you need to be extra careful. There will be lots of people all around and cars driving through the streets might not be watching out for you, so you need to watch for them. Make sure when crossing a street you look left,right and then left again.If there are no cars coming then you can cross the street. When walking around on Halloween make sure to stay on the sidewalks for the most safety.

PAGE EIGHT/NINE- As a group when approaching a house make sure to say TRICK OR TREAT! really loud so that everyone can hear you at the house. When reaching for the candy make sure to take only one, that is whats polite. Also, for the best possible safety make sure to NEVER go in the house. ALWAYS make sure that you are not alone and even when in a group not to go inside the house.

PAGE TEN/ELEVEN- At the end of the night make sure to thank everyone you are with for having such a great night and for keeping you safe. When you get inside your house make sure to hand your candy to your parents to check. Your parents always need to check your candy to make sure its safe and has not been tampered with. Once all of your candy is checked by your parents then it is time to EAT EAT EAT! Just make sure to not eat it all at one sitting! Have a happy and safe Halloween!
