As Texas gets ready and prepared for the fall, that means Halloween is right around the corner. That’s right, it’s time to get spooky, grab those costumes, and most importantly, my favorite part of Halloween and, go trick-or-treating. Trick-or-treating for children is probably their favorite time of the year because let’s be honest, who doesn’t look like free candy?

As we all know when it comes to trick-or-treating, there are a couple of rules that we have to follow, for example, make sure you check your children’s bags immediately after trick-or-treating, children need to make sure that they stay close to their parents and don’t wander off while trick-or-treating and what I think it’s really important, Texans need to make sure to keep an eye on jack-o’-lantern buckets that are colored blue or teal. You might’ve gone trick-or-treating with your children and noticed blue or Teal jack-o- lantern buckets, and probably thought it was just decoration, but the reality is, there’s an actual meaning behind why some children select blue/teal buckets.

According to Count on News 2, if you happen to see a child, carrying a blue or a teal-colored, pumpkin, while trick-or-treating this Halloween, keep in mind that this child could possibly be autistic or could have possible allergens to certain foods. Blue buckets, allow individuals who are passing out candy to know that this autistic child might not greet you with the very familiar, "trick-or-treat “due to the fact that some children who have been diagnosed with autism, may have a speech impediment. Keep in mind trick-or-treating is lots of fun and no one should be in an actual rush, so this Halloween season we ask if you happen to see teal or blue jack-o’-lantern buckets please remain patient and understanding. Happy Halloween Texas.
