We at Weathersfield Police Department would like to offer up these few Halloween safety tips for parents and children: 
 
 * Give and accept wrapped or packaged candy only. 
* Only go to houses that you know the owner. 
* Have children bring treats home for adult inspection before they are eaten. 
* A parent or adult should accompany children when they are trick-or-treating. 
* Carry a flashlight. 
* Stay within your neighborhood; only visit homes you know. 
* Use make-up or face paint instead of masks. Make sure the child has good visibility. 
* Choose costumes that are flame retardant. 
* Wear light-colored clothes, short enough to not trip. Add reflective tape to dark costumes. 
* Watch for vehicle traffic and use caution when crossing the street. 
 
Anyone who sees something suspicious is asked to contact the Weathersfield Police Department at 802-674-2185. 
 
Happy Halloween!!!!
