Summer vacation is a time of active recreation, new experiences and adventures. To ensure that children's leisure time is safe, adults should pay attention to simple but important recommendations. Following these useful tips will help avoid dangerous situations and make children's vacation comfortable.
Basic safety rules:
- Do not leave windows open in rooms where children are;
- Use blockers or safety devices;
- Explain to children the rules for using electrical and gas appliances;
- Do not leave children unattended near water, even if they are good swimmers;
- Prohibit games on roofs, attics, construction sites, and abandoned buildings;
- Make an agreement with your child to report where they are and with whom;
- Explain the rules for safe use of the Internet;
- Remind the traffic rules;
- Explain how to handle suspicious or dangerous items;
- Pay special attention to the dangers of hooking! The consequences of this risky “game” can be tragic. Talk to your child about this dangerous practice. Explain that this is not fun, but a deadly risk.
Learn the emergency numbers together:
- 101 — State Emergency Service
- 102 — police
- 103 — ambulance
Organize active leisure activities for your child, where they will be supervised by adults: clubs, camps, excursions.
Be aware and responsible! After all, the safety of children depends on the care of adults.
