Tips to read before selecting a Halloween costume for your child.

•  Select a costume that won't fall apart before the 
   night's festivities are over. 

• Make sure the costume won't hamper your 
   child's movement.

• Consider face paint as a safe alternative to masks,
   especially for younger children.

• If the costume is elaborate, dress your child in simple
  clothing underneath. This way they can easily change to
  play games or take a break.

• Solid color turtlenecks and sweat pants are an easy
   costume starter for kids.

• Don't forget about your child's restroom needs.

• Don't work yourself into a frenzy. This is supposed to be 
   fun for you and your child. 

• If trick-or-treating after dusk, have kids carry a flashlight
  and use a glow stick necklace to wear over the costume.
  reflective tape on the treat bag is also helpful.
