Christmas is above all an illusion: to share, to live unique experiences, to have a lot of free time, to receive the odd gift, and to feel a magic that for some reason hides during the rest of the year. But like any rewarding experience, it is most enjoyed when the safety of children is taken into account.
And who are we the guarantors of that security? Adults, of course ... parents, grandparents or uncles are the ones who take them to mass events such as the Three Kings' Cavalcade, or workshops in a Shopping Center; We are also the ones who decide on the amount of sugar in our meals, and they are just examples. From the National Association of Child Safety they are offering (and will do until January 8) a series of information related to the safety of children during the winter holidays, and I really liked the first article he does emphasize outings, and how to ensure that our children have fun, and we are calm.
As part of the challenge of getting a Safe Party, parents should dare to be children again, for many reasons, but mainly because by interacting with them, getting involved in activities and getting excited, we follow them closely, and we have the opportunity to reinforce self-protection. We also propose to imagine Stories related to Christmas to reinforce its preventive culture; An example ?, we can draw an imaginary line representing the security space so that our children do not leave it when they go to collect the candies that the pages of the Three Wise Men throw during the ride of the Cavalcade.
Activity Planning
If we do it as a family, the kids can contribute ideas and participate as one (which they are), so we will awaken the curiosity and interest of everyone for different forms of entertainment. Further, participating together, we will discover what our children like to do, and we will surely learn a lot.
It is important to plan each specific departure, and do so by locating the resources available in case someone gets confused, including meeting points, identification bracelets, memorizing phone numbers, etc. Children are the responsibility of the parents, therefore, while it is possible it is important to go with them to any act.
With these tips we can enjoy a safer Christmas, and you can expand them through the recommendations related to food, decoration and gifts that we make here. And of course I invite you to follow the next articles and infographics of Child Safety at Christmas, New Year's Eve, and Kings.
