In this episode, I share the one simple safety skill that saved my son one Halloween night and how you can teach it to your child before trick-or-treating. You'll also learn two bonus, psychology-based tips: when to buy your child's costume to avoid stress and how to tailor Halloween plans for introverted or extroverted kids so the night is fun, safe, and meltdown-free.

New to my podcast?  I'm Dr. Lindsay Emmerson, a clinical psychologist and Mom of 4, and I help parents find that sweet spot between support and structure that psychology research tells us is best for families now and best for our kids in the future.
