One day, Little Bear was walking along the road when he noticed something strange. A stranger seemed to be following him! Little Bear felt a bit scared but decided to be brave and think of a plan.
Little Bear thought, “Maybe if I change how I look, the stranger won’t recognize me.” So, he put on a disguise and continued walking. But the stranger was still there!
As Little Bear walked, he heard someone shout, “Stop, it’s red!” He quickly stopped at the traffic light, just in time. The stranger was still behind him, and Little Bear knew he had to do something fast.
Just then, Sheriff Labrador appeared. He was a friendly dog who always helped keep everyone safe. Sheriff Labrador said, “Hey, Little Bear! If someone is following you, it’s important to stay calm. Try to find a crowded place and ask for help from other adults.”
Little Bear remembered Sheriff Labrador’s advice. He decided to run to a busy park where lots of people were playing. The stranger couldn’t follow him there, and Little Bear felt much safer.
Before leaving, Sheriff Labrador shared some important safety tips:
Little Bear thanked Sheriff Labrador for his help and promised to remember these tips. He felt much better knowing what to do if he ever felt unsafe again.
And that’s the end of Little Bear’s adventure! Remember, staying safe is important, and there are always people who can help you if you need it.
Role-Playing Safety Scenarios: Gather a few friends or family members and act out different safety scenarios. One person can pretend to be Little Bear, another can be Sheriff Labrador, and others can be the people in the park. Practice what Little Bear should do if he feels someone is following him. Discuss how it feels to ask for help and why it’s important to stay calm.
Design Your Own Disguise: Just like Little Bear, create your own clever disguise using items from around your home. Use hats, glasses, scarves, or any other fun accessories. Once you’re in disguise, try walking around and see if your family can recognize you. Talk about why Little Bear’s disguise didn’t work and what else he could have done.
Safety Tip Poster: Create a colorful poster that includes the safety tips shared by Sheriff Labrador. Use drawings, stickers, or magazine cutouts to make it bright and eye-catching. Hang your poster somewhere in your home to remind everyone about staying safe and what to do if they feel someone is following them.
