What Participants Have Said...

My son loved it! He was super excited sharing what he learned. During Sunday dinner, my youngest was shaking his body while eating green peas and Davi said: "Stop! Choking hazard!"
Great job, Brooklyn and Colin (Home Alone Facilitators)!

Home Alone Program

The Home Alone Safety for Kids program helps children and their families get ready for their child’s first steps towards independence and being without adult supervision for short periods of time. This safety program is ideally suited for children aged 9-12 years old. Safety and accident prevention are the common themes throughout the program.
