Knows the address and what to do if lost
What it is
Knows their full name, a parent's name and the address, and has practised staying put and finding a safe adult.
Always on
- Rehearse the rule: stop where you are, and if we do not come, find a mother with children or someone in a uniform.
- Practise in the mall or at the beach before you need it — walk them through it once, calmly.
- Write your phone number on a wristband or inside the bag for outings and crowded places.
- Teach that a safe adult never asks a child to go somewhere else to help them.
