š Happy Halloween! š»
This weekend our neighbourhoods will be filled with little ghosts, superheroes, princesses and probably a few dinosaurs running from door to door!
If youāre welcoming trick-or-treaters, here are a few simple ways to help keep everyone safe while visiting your home.
š Clear the walkway. Sweep away wet leaves and remove anything that could cause little feet to trip.
š” Light the way. Make sure your porch lights are on and the path to your front door is well-lit.
š Watch your decorations. Keep pumpkins, extension cords and Halloween displays away from walkways and stairs. Battery-operated candles are a great alternative to real flames.
š¾ Keep pets secure. Even the friendliest dog can get excited or nervous with a constant stream of visitors.
š¬ Make treats easy to reach. Consider greeting trick-or-treaters at the bottom of your steps, especially if your entrance is narrow or crowded.
And donāt forget to slow down if youāre driving through your neighbourhood tonight. Excited little ones donāt always remember to look both ways!
Wishing all my neighbours in Bolton, Caledon and surrounding communities a safe, fun and Happy Halloween! š§”
