Before you hop in a car, walk across the street, go hiking, or ride your bike, it’s super important to do a safety check! Being safe helps us have more fun. Let’s learn some easy safety tips that everyone should know!
When you play sports, make sure to wear the right shoes and all your safety gear. This means wearing guards on your elbows, wrists, and knees if you’re skating. And don’t forget your helmet when you ride your bike!
Always cross the street when the light is green. If you’re out at night, use reflectors so others can see you. Look for stop signs when you’re biking, and bring lots of water if you’re going on a hike.
When waiting for the bus, stay on the sidewalk with your friends until it stops. After getting off the bus, walk in front of it and look both ways before crossing the street. This helps you stay safe!
Always stay in your seat and wear your seatbelt in cars and buses. It’s important not to distract the driver, even when you’re having fun.
Walk on the sidewalk, not in the road. Cross only at crosswalks. When you’re in a parking lot, stay close to an adult because drivers might not see you.
Remember, don’t talk to strangers. If you ever need help, you can call 911. Someone will be there to help you.
These safety tips are easy to remember and help keep you safe. Now you can enjoy your adventures with peace of mind!
Safety Gear Fashion Show: Organize a mini fashion show at home or in the classroom where you and your friends can showcase different safety gear. You can wear helmets, knee pads, or reflective vests. Talk about why each piece of gear is important and how it helps keep you safe. Ask yourself, “What would happen if I didn’t wear this gear while biking or skating?”
Street Crossing Practice: Create a pretend street using chalk or tape on the floor. Practice crossing the street safely by looking both ways and waiting for the “green light” (you can use a piece of green paper or a toy traffic light). Discuss with a friend or family member why it’s important to cross at crosswalks and how reflectors help at night. Ask, “How can I make sure drivers see me when I’m crossing the street?”
Safety Detective: Go on a “Safety Detective” walk around your neighborhood or school. Look for safety signs, crosswalks, and places where you should be extra careful, like parking lots. Make a list or draw pictures of the safety features you find. Think about, “What safety rules do I follow when I see these signs or places?” Share your findings with your class or family.
