Some of the parents and grandparents may remember the days when hospitals would X-ray Halloween candy on Trick-or-treat night. While those days may be behind us, Gary Collins with Memorial Hospital of Sweetwater County says it is still very important for kids to have their parents check out their treats before eating them.
Collins says the safest way for kids to trick-or-treat is to keep to houses and places they know.
Be sure and have that annual Trick-or-treat safety talk with your kids before they venture out. Remind them to never run out into a street and look both ways before crossing. Also, make sure the older kids are in a group and have some sort of reflective clothing or are carrying a flashlight.
