This week is Child Safety Week. Ran by the Child Accident Prevention Trust (CAPT), the aim of the week is to raise awareness of child safety, and ways of minimising risks so as accidents can be prevented.
The CAPT website offers excellent advice, guides and action packs for both practitioners and parents as well as some really useful FREE Resources and Activity Sheets that can be used to help children learn about safety in a fun and engaging way.
