With all the news lately of children getting hurt by their toys, I thought it might be good to find opportunities to remind our kids of some simple ways they can stay safe. The Safety Book for Active Kids: Teaching Your Child How to Avoid Everyday Dangers is divided into seven chapters. Some children may be too young to review each and every one, but there will be a time and place when they need to understand that they need to be mindful of their surroundings.
Excerpt from an Amazon customer review by lurnerjr:
The section has one page that has an illustration and a one paragraph description of a situation. Read the paragraph and ask the child what they would do. The child then responds. This is a great way to get to know your child’s maturity level, reasoning skills, and common sence. On the second page of the section there is a good discussion of the ideal response to the situation posed on the preceding page.
That looks like an interesting book. If/when I decide we just Have to have it, I’ll come click your link
