Parents: Take Precautions to Keep Your Trick-or-Treaters Safe
While we are usually like to keep our blog to related to best car wash practices and auto detailing topics we felt we would mix it up a bit and give some helpful safety tips for all the parents out there. We hope you will find this blog post useful!
For many children, Halloween is a time to dress up in a favorite costume, go to classroom parties and trick-or-treat at neighbors’ houses. These happy thoughts of jack-o-lanterns, costumes and candy may cause parents and kids alike to forget the potential dangers of Halloween. Please take a look at the following Halloween safety topics for adults in order to keep this autumn holiday safe and fun.
Costume
• Whether you buy or make your child’s costume, make sure the material is flame retardant.
• If the costume is not already a bright color, add reflective tape so motorists and other trick-or-treaters can better see your child.
• Consider using face paint instead of a mask, so your child’s vision will not be restricted.
• Make sure the costume is not too long so that your child doesn’t trip and fall.
• If your child is carrying a prop, such as a plastic sword, make sure the tips are smooth and flexible to prevent injury.
Route
• Older children: Plan older children’s routes ahead of time, so you know where they will be. Also, set a time for them to return home. If possible, send a cell phone with them to use in case of emergency.
• Younger children: Never let small children trick-or-treat alone. While walking your pre-planned route, remind them to stay on sidewalks and cross at corners or crosswalks.
• Only go to houses where the lights are on.
• Make sure either you or your child carries a flashlight if trick-or-treating after daylight hours.
Candy
• Provide your children with a healthy meal before they go trick-or-treating. This way, they won’t be hungry and will be less tempted to sample their candy en-route.
• Do not allow children to eat collected candy while they are trick-or-treating. Always check candy before they eat it, and dispose of any candy with an open wrapper or other suspicious appearances.
In addition to the above suggestions, I encourage you to teach your children basic safety
knowledge. Common sense tells adults to look both ways before crossing the street, but eager kids on Halloween night may forget this basic safety rule. Also, it is good to remind children that although Halloween is a fun, exciting holiday, they still need to remember their manners and always say “thank you” when accepting candy.

The gas prices are staying down a while longer and the weather is warming up. Perhaps a road trip is in your future! If that’s the case, we’ve compiled some helpful tips to remember when hitting the open road.
Car Check! Whether you do it yourself, or you take it to the shop, make sure your car is in the best condition possible for a long trip. This includes checking fluids, wiper blades, hose connections, tire pressure, signals and headlights.
Cell phones are essential these days although we do reply on them heavily make sure to be prepared. Have your phone charger, have a roadside assistance phone number, etc. It’s also a good idea to have contact information for all of your important destinations saved before you hit the road. This could save you time in case you get lost or have car trouble.
Your trunk can be full of luggage, or full of emergency care items. However prepared you choose to be, there are some items that should be there. For example, a tire iron, bottled water, a fire extinguisher, a first-aid kit and reflectors.
Before you take off on your adventure, make sure the tread on the spare tire is good and pressure is right. And if you have the room, swap out the doughnut tire for a full-sized spare. And last, but certainly not least consider going through a quality drive thru car wash and add protective measures such as Rain-X and wax to help give protection against the elements and bugs which can cause harm to your paint surface.
