Why Personal Safety Matters:
Personal safety is a crucial life skill that every child should learn. As children grow and explore the world around them, it's important for them to understand how to keep themselves safe in various situations, whether it's at home, school, or out in the community. Learning about personal safety helps children develop confidence, awareness, and critical thinking skills, empowering them to make safe choices and respond appropriately to potential dangers.
