Halloween is one of the scariest and spookiest nights each year in Atlanta, but it can also be one of the safest, with some sage advice and recommendations from AT&T.

Technology can play a role in helping parents keep their kids safe this Halloween. For younger kids, consider the FiLIP smartwatch child locator, which also doubles as a watch.
