Be very sure you are safe on Halloween
Stay with an adult if you’re under age 13
Wear bright clothing seen easily at night
And reflective materials so bright

Trick or treat in an area you know well
Look out for busy streets and moving vehicles as well
Inspect your candy to ensure it is ok
And be careful in every little way

Wear only masks that ensure that you can see
Your costume needs to fit you just as perfect as can be
Travel with a friend and keep a flashlight in your hand
I’m so hopeful that you understand
