Safety reflector season has started and the days are zipping by. Most of all we notice it because of how much earlier it gets dark every day. Here in Chicago, we are losing one minute a day. One week I pick up kids after their activities and it is not so dark. The next week it is pitch black and I’m thinking of which Halloween safety reflectors to get them tis year. Have you too been surprised how fast it goes?
Are You Ready?
I got an email today “65 Days Until Black Friday! Are You Ready?” Bah, no, I’m not. funflector.com is ready, we are already shipping orders for stocking stuffers, but not me personally. The kids are still going to school in shorts and it is hard to find (real) fall leaves to use for photo props. So how can I be ready for what’s beyond Thanksgiving? We are busy with Halloween safety. Very busy! Last week, we came across some statistics that stated that four times as many kids are killed in traffic on Halloween as on any other night during the year. Four times—that’s a lot and we don’t want to stand on the sideline to see that happen any more.
Reflective Tape or Halloween Reflectors?
We think our fun pedestrian reflectors are infinitely cooler than reflective tape, but if you prefer tape: GO FOR IT! Reflective tape is infinitely better than nothing when it comes to sparing kids (and adults!) from pedestrian accidents. If you prefer colorful fun Halloween reflectors for your costume, head over to the funflector webshop and order some! There are plenty of designs for Halloween and beyond. If you have a credit card handy, checkout is safe, easy and straight forward (no paypal account needed). Which ones are you going to pick? In only 40 days, they need to be pinned on Halloween costumes!
Have fun and be safe!
