Happy Halloween from Cappuccino Insurance Agency! While celebrating the holiday this year, it is important to make sure that you know how to stay safe. Keep these Halloween safety tips in mind to ensure you have both a fun and safe holiday!

  • When setting up decorations, make sure to keep the walkway of your house clear so that nobody trips and is injured when trick or treating. Also, make sure that there are no other potential hazards, such as hoses or toys.
  • Make sure your pets are safely locked away from trick or treaters and do not jump on or bite anyone that comes to your door.
  • When choosing the right Halloween costume for your child, make sure to choose one that fits properly to avoid tripping and falling. Dress your children in comfortable shoes, since they will be walking long distances.
  • Use face paint instead of a mask to complete you child’s costume because masks can interfere with their ability to see. Make sure to test the face paint on a small area to ensure it does not irritate your child’s skin.
  • If you have older children who are trick or treating with a group of friends, make sure that they stay in neighborhoods they are familiar with, and have a designated times to be home.
  • Only cross the street in crosswalks, and follow all traffic laws. Teach your children to make eye contact with a driver before they cross the street, so they know the driver sees them.
  • Have your child carry a flashlight or glow stick to make them more visible to drivers and to help them see better at night.

Cappuccino Insurance Agency in Westlake Village would like to encourage you and your family to keep these tips in mind, to ensure you stay safe and have fun this holiday.
