Children under 18 are 3.5x more likely to be fatally injured by a car on Halloween than any other day according to Safe Kids Worldwide, a global nonprofit that works to prevent unintentional injuries to children.

Here’s a few tips on keeping the kids safe this Halloween.

  1. Put electronic devices down, keep heads up and walk, don’t run, across the street.
  2. Teach children to make eye contact with drivers before crossing in front of them.
  3. Have kids carry glow sticks or flashlights to help them see and be seen by drivers.
