As you enjoy trick-or-treating with your loved ones, don't forget to keep safety first to ensure fun for the whole family.

🤡 Ditch the masks and try face paint instead, allowing for clear vision.
🎇 Incorporate glow-in-the-dark, reflective, or bright-colored items into your costume for maximum visibility.
🍭 Check all candy for potential choking hazards, contaminants, or allergens.
🌧️ Wear layers and appropriate shoes to accommodate for chilly or rainy weather.

We hope you'll have more treats and fewer tricks this year, but if accidents or illnesses happen, dealing with them can be much less scary with AFC. Stay safe and have fun! 🍭
