Winter Safety Tips

Keeping yourself safe outdoors in the winter can be challenging, but if you dress properly and take precautions, winter can be filled with lots of fun activities.

One of the best tips we have learned over the years is WALK LIKE A PENGUIN when on slippery ground. Basically, it means feet pointing outward, small steps and use your arms for balance like in the video below.

While outdoor winter safety tips are important, indoor safety is important as well. Safety Tree wants everyone to practice indoor safety and has some upcoming classes to prepare kids for this.

Start 2017 Safely With Safety Tree Classes For Kids - Enter To Win

Last week the weather outside was frightful and inside it was so delightful, and while schools were open buses were cancelled.  This makes it quite difficult for parents to make last minute arrangements and having to decide if they should keep their kids at home, drive their children to school or find the best way to walk there in the blustery conditions.

 

We have several more weeks of winter to deal with and now is the time to start thinking about 2017 snow days and bus cancellations.  Are your kids ready to be home alone? Safety Tree can help you with the decision making process.  They have options to help prepare your kids to home alone and they also offer classes during the holiday break to keep your kids occupied.  Think of it as a DAY CAMP to prepare for the next snow storm.
