Costume notes that help

• Check the label for flame resistant.
• Face paint over full masks that block side vision.
• Shorten dragging hems. Wet leaves + long fabric = trips.
• Add tape high and low: shoulders, chest, cuffs, and bag.

Set it up in 2 minutes

1. Put two strips of reflective tape on the front and two on the back of the coat. Add a strip on the bag.
2. Clip one LED high (hood/shoulder) and one low (bag hem).
3. Add an LED slap band over a sleeve.
4. Hand the mini torch to the oldest kid; keep a spare in your pocket.
5. Walk with younger kids; phones down at crossings.
