A Child Safety Tips Discussion and an Amber Alert GPS Are Both Important
A child safety tips talk with your child needs to go along with your new GPS child locator. (If you’ve not gotten one as yet, I will tell you about that in a moment.) Gauge the strength of your topics to the age of your child, of course, but don’t be surprised if they know more than you expect.
Generally children are not as innocent about such things as safety and strangers as the parents think they will be. Initiating such a talk can be very welcome to the child who has questions she didn’t know how to ask. Children do get misinformation, at times. It is always good to clear that up.
Topics for discussion should include the lost puppy trick, never going into a public bathroom alone, never talking to a stranger, getting into a strange car, staying in groups.
A child safety tips talk should also include how important it is to scream, as loud and long as they can. If they are frightened, they should not hesitate to scream.
Does your child know how to reach you? Work numbers, cell phone numbers. Does he know how to call the police? How about his own phone number and address. Is he clear on those? If he is too young, or has trouble remembering, then help him learn where he can easily find those numbers. A good spot is written inside his back pack.
Does your family have an emergency plan? It is a good idea to include that planning in your child safety tips talk. Let the children make suggestions. They will remember the plan much better if they have participated in the creation. A good idea for older kids is to plan to meet them where you last saw them. If you dropped her off at the stable, then she should get back there and wait for you. Don’t try to get home.
I said I would tell you about the personal size Amber Alert GPS child locator. You are familiar with the large Amber Alert lighted signs along our nations highways. Now you can have that protection in a device tucked into your child’s pocket and signaling back to your cell phone exactly where she is.
