Walking to the Bus Stop
|
|
 |
Walk your young child to the bus stop and have older children walk in groups. There is safety in numbers; groups are easier for drivers to see. |
|
Practice good pedestrian behavior. Your children should walk on the sidewalk; if there is no sidewalk, they should stay out of the street. |
|
If they must walk in the street, they should walk single file, face traffic and stay as close to the edge of the road as they can. |
|
Tell you child to stop and look left, right and then left again if they must cross the street. They should do the same thing at driveways and alleys. Exaggerate your head turns and narrate your actions so your child knows you are looking left, right and left. |
