As parents we constantly worry about the safety of our children. Making sure that our children don’t wonder off and get lost is just one of the many worries we have as parents. As terrifying as the thought may be, it’s something we need to think about and discuss with our children.

The feeling of panic and hysteria a parent feels when they realize that their child has wondered off and as a result is lost is unbearable. What would you do? What would your child do? Would they know who to ask for help? Do they know their full name, telephone number and address? As parents it’s our job to make sure we provide our children with the necessary tools to assist them in maintaining their own safety.

This book not only acknowledges the terrifying fact that sometimes, despite our efforts children wonder off and get lost, but it can also be used as a tool to facilitate and encourage learning.

This title will stimulate discussion between you and your child, specifically focused on your child’s safety. You and your child will have the opportunity to explore various strategies that may lesson the chance of your child becoming lost, as well as identifying and stressing the importance for your child to be able to recall relevant information, in order to assist them in being found.
