🦃 Keeping Your Kids Safe During the Holidays 🦃 ⠀⠀⠀

10 tips to keep your child safe:

1. Make a beaded bracelet with your phone number on it for them to wear. This can be a fun activity to do together.

2. Attach a business card to a keychain with hard case cover to their pants.

3. Always take a picture of your child that morning so you know what they are wearing and can share with police if need be.

4. Start teaching them when you are out where the cash register is in a store so they know to go to the person at the register when they are lost. Or find someone with a uniform, like a police officer or a security guard 👮‍♀️

5. It’s important to teach them your full name as well so they don’t just say "Mommy" when someone asks, "What’s your mommy’s name?"

6. When they get older, and you are going out to a crowded place teach them to repeat back what you are wearing so they can also describe you. And teach them your phone number ☎️ .

7. When staying at a hotel, give your child the business card of the hotel with your name and number on back. Tell them this is their “ticket” and that they need to keep it with them when going out in case they get lost. Why I love pants with pockets for kids.

8. Don’t write your child’s name on a bag or jacket where a stranger can easily call their name. (I only showed the kids names here because I wanted to show off my favorite @mabelslabels). .

9. Teach your kids, “if you can’t see me, then I can’t see you.”

10. Give your kids an opportunity to run before a flight ✈️ for example run to that pole AND then run back to me. The “running back to me” part is important so they don’t run off. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
