Putting road safety in the picture
Abstract
Argues that teaching of road safety should begin in infant schools, if not before. Describes a draw‐and‐write exercise for five‐year‐olds on safety which can encourage discussion of safe places to play and safe places to cross the road. Outlines ways in which this exercise can be followed up. Describes how seven‐year‐olds who took part in a similar draw‐and‐write exercise were already aware of messages such as not to play near roads, that safety helmets should be worn, and that they should use a seat belt in the car.
