Safety Tips

It’s that time of the year again when Children are returning to school. The stores are filled with parents and their children purchasing new clothes, school supplies and getting new hair cuts all in preparation for the big day. These same children will be waiting at bus stops, walking or leaving and returning to home alone.
That’s why it is so important to include safety in your preparation plans. Prior to the first day of school discuss with your child the route to school and a back up plan if they miss the bus. Provide them with phone numbers where they can reach you and a near by neighbor. Remind them not to open the door to strangers, have a secret word and review other important safety rules so you and your child are on the same page when it comes to safety.
One of the most important things you can do to protect your children is to talk with them about potentially dangerous situations. This Emmy Award-winning DVD can help. It keeps kids engaged while introducing them to seven easy-to-remember "Hot Tips". Hosted by "Safe Side Super chick", and featuring a cameo by John Walsh, the program is fun to watch and never scary.
Stay safe and have a great school year. You can purchase Stranger Safety and Internet Safety at http://www.lilboyblu.com/ along with Cool Tunes, where “hot tips” are put to music.
