Start Safe: Programs
Young children are at an increased risk for injury and death resulting from drowning, fires, and burns. The Start Safe program is designed to give preschool teachers, fire and life safety educators and other safety experts the tools they need to reach preschool children and their families. The Start Safe program offers free resources that were created to meet the learning needs of young children and adults with low literacy skills. The materials are available in both English and Spanish. Currently, Safe Kids Worldwide offers two components to the Start Safe program – Start Safe: Fire and Start Safe: Water. Early childhood educators can use the Start Safe program to present classroom lessons that help young children learn to recognize and stay away from fire and burn hazards, and how to make safe decisions in and around water. Educators and other safety experts can also use the Start Safe program materials to help parents and caregivers make their homes safer. Initiatives |
