Prepare your kids to walk to and from school safely with the one-of-a-kind Kidproof I Wanna Walk program!
About the Course:
One of the most difficult things for many parents is allowing their children to walk to school on their own. But for many parents, driving their children to and from school each day may not be feasible, and eventually most of us will decide that our children are mature enough to walk to school on their own.
Walking is a healthy, and environmentally friendly way for your children to get to school and with proper preparation can be safe.
The Kidproof I Wanna Walk program is a two hour program that prepares kids ages 8 and up to walk to and from school safely.
Kids learn how to safely respond to situations dealing with the three main risks:
- Strangers
- Bullies
- Traffic
Through interactive, non-threatening and entertaining lessons, kids learn:
- How to plan a safe route to and from school
- Who to go to for help along the route
- The #1 rule to safety
- What to do if approached by a stranger
- How to deal with potential bullies
- What to do if a friend is being bullied along the route
- Pedestrian and Bicycle, Skateboard, and Rollerblade safety
- Plus much more.
For a child who is capable and mature enough, walking to school can be safe, fun and empowering. TIP: If classes are full, register on the wait list. We will contact you as soon as dates are confirmed in your area.
