Turn the Page into a Before-You-Go Safety Card
Rather than focusing only on what to do after a child is in danger, this handwritten newspaper can highlight the importance of making a clear family plan before leaving. Use the sequence of leaving, traveling, and arriving to create a simple safety card that children can understand and remember.
Four agreements to make before leaving
- Trip agreement: Say where you are going, who you will be with, and when you expect to return.
- Companion agreement: Stay with familiar companions and do not change the route alone just to catch up with someone.
- Check-in agreement: Let a parent know when you arrive, and ask before changing the plan.
- Change-of-plan agreement: If someone offers to take you somewhere or pick you up, stop, refuse to follow, and contact your parent for confirmation.
Three refusals and one safe request for help
Use bright lettering to write: Do not follow, do not accept items from strangers, do not keep a stranger’s secret, and ask for help quickly. If someone makes you uncomfortable, keep your distance and move toward a teacher, police officer, security guard, shop assistant, or another trusted staff member. Speak clearly: ‘I do not know this person. Please help me.’
A short passage children can copy
Make a plan before I go, and keep safety in my heart. Say where I am going and who I will be with. I will not follow a stranger or accept a stranger’s gift. If something feels wrong, I will keep my distance, ask for help, and return home safely.
Arrange the layout like a simple journey map
- Top: Write ‘Make a plan, then go’ or ‘Safe travel starts with a plan’, with drawings of a house, backpack, and footprints.
- Left side: Create a before-leaving checklist with four small sections for the trip, companions, check-in, and plan changes.
- Center: Connect ‘leave’, ‘act safely’, ‘ask for help’, and ‘arrive home safely’ with arrows so the reading order is clear.
- Bottom: Place the three-refusals reminder and safety promise in red and yellow to make them stand out.
Make the page feel like a useful reminder card
Do not fill every space with words. Add one simple icon to each section: a flag for an agreement, two people for companionship, a phone for checking in, and a raised hand for asking for help. After checking that the handwriting is clear, you can continue arranging the title, sections, and decorations in the 智慧手抄报 WeChat mini program.
