Parent-Child Workshops for children, 1st through 5th grades

 

How can we teach our children to be safe without scaring them in a fun, experiential way? Our workshops introduce simple, important everyday safety skills through storytelling and interactive role-plays and guides children in practicing these skills with their adult.
