Safety Tuesday: Shop and Plan Ahead for Child Safety
No one wants to plan for an emergency, but a little bit of planning goes a long way towards making the most of your vacation days and can help prevent a tragedy. Worth the effort!
If you are planning a trip then you will want to check out some of the offerrings at the Chicks and Cubs website. Some picks to consider:
1. Physical IDs for children to have all the information they need, ON them, to get back to parents quickly if they become lost. ID bracelets, Shoe Stickers, Shoe Tags, Dog Tags, Temporary Tattoos, Electronic Child Locator ($8.00-$30.00)
2. Wallet IDs These are great for putting all the important information in one place. Parents carry the card and hand it over to authorities if you child is lost. Also great for giving to other caregivers (child care on a cruise, playdates,...). This can also be a physical ID for tweens/teens - since they don't have a drivers license yet. ($10.00 for 5 cards)
3. Parking Pal Magnet This is a magnet that you put on your car. It gives children something to do while you get babies and/or other gear out of the car so they don't dart out into traffic in a parking lot. (set of 2 magnets for $16.00)
4. Information for before you go on a trip (to busy, crowded places!!). Kid Escape! from Child Abductors DVD - teaches kids physical moves to try there very best to ESCAPE from an abductor. ($12.00)
5. Mini First Aid Kit This first aid kit is great for little scrapes. Great size for diaper bag, camera bag, purse. ($6.00)
