5. Be classy with outdoor decorations
Especially if you put fake tombstones outside, don’t use any real names. It could be upsetting to others. Stick with “R.I.P” or “Do Not Disturb”.
6. Teach kids manners for trick-or-treating
Kids will be interacting with adults so make sure your children or grandchildren know to say please, thank you, talk with adults nicely, and only take one piece of candy unless they are told to take more.
7. Think again if you want to do a haunted house
Homemade haunted houses can be fun but think about the liability. You take a risk when you let strangers or people you don’t know well into your home. If they get hurt or ill from the haunted house, you risk them suing you.
8. Think about allergies
If you are passing out candy with nuts or other allergens, have another bowl of candy that kids with allergies can enjoy too. If you have all allergy-free goodies, you can now put a teal pumpkin on your porch to let parents know you are an allergy-free home.
Do you follow all of these Halloween rules? Or were you not aware of some of these?
