June is National Safety Month: a time to focus on keeping children and families safe at home, online, and in our communities. With kids out of school for the summer, it’s the perfect opportunity to teach important safety habits like injury prevention, water and fire safety, internet safety, stranger awareness, and healthy body boundaries.
This year marks the 30th anniversary of National Safety Month! Let’s work together to build safer homes, stronger communities, and healthier futures this summer and all year long. Check out this collection of picture books about keeping children safe in our world.
