Mini Lesson
Sometimes you need help. Some grown-ups are safe to ask. Your own grown-up is the best one.
🏠 The Life Skills Way (step by step)
- MY GROWN-UP: ask your own grown-up first.
- IN A STORE: stay inside. Ask a store worker at the counter.
- AT A PARK: stay where you are. Ask a mom or dad with children.
- ON THE STREET: ask a police officer.
- SAY: tell the helper your name and your grown-up's name.
🛡️ My Safety Rules
- ASK FIRST: never go anywhere without your grown-up's OK. Not even with someone you know.
- MY BODY: your body belongs to you. It is OK to say no.
- TELL: tell your grown-up if something makes you feel uneasy.
Your own grown-up is in charge of where you go. Never go with anyone without their OK. If someone asks you to keep a secret from your grown-up, tell your grown-up.
