Kids Safe at Home

This class is for the child who stays by himself/herself occasionally, cares for younger siblings for a short period of times or is just ready to accept the responsibility.

Topics covered include: safety in the home, proper use of keys, what to do in case of an emergency, how to respond to strangers and general house rules. Fee includes workbook.
