What greater responsibility do adults have than to look after, care for, and love the children in their charge? As parents and teachers in this world often filled with grief and trouble, it is our responsibility to protect and shelter these little lives so that they can enjoy childhood.

This workbook will aid parents and teachers in teaching the skills which young children need to have to be safe in their environment. By teaching children about safety issues at a young age, we give them the knowledge they need to make good choices. Whether it is knowing what not to touch or knowing how to respond to a stranger, this workbook will reinforce those important rules children need to know.

The topics included are:

Indoor Safety

  • Cleanliness
  • Don't Touch

Outdoor Safety

  • Water/Pools
  • Cars/Street Rules
  • Safe Play
  • People Around Us

These easy-to-use workbooks are great for enrichment, classroom practice, tutoring, home schooling, or just for fun!

Testimonials

I am a stay at home mom who values education very much, and these resources have been able to help me start my child's education early in order to give her a head start before she even enters into school. - Heather L.

The resources I received will help me tremendously with reading skills. I was amazed at how quickly I received my order. - Annette H.

My son needed some additional work with his fine motor skills to prepare him for Kindergarten next year. We work out of the books I ordered. He does his "homework" when my older son is completing his after school. He loves it! It makes him feel like a big boy. I was amazed that my order arrived two days after I placed it, especially because it was the Holiday season. - Dawn M.

I purchased the full color Kindergarten file folder games, and my students love them. We use them daily during our literacy groups. Your service was great! - Cindy M.

They provide a variety of ways to reach different students and allow me to vary my activities year-to-year. - Staci M.

I have used all the materials with my Kdg. class and found them to be so appropriate. The children enjoy them. - Jennifer C.
