How it works
Safe grown-ups care about children and want to help. Family, teachers, police officers and shop workers are safe helpers.
A safe grown-up never asks a child to keep a secret from their family.
A safe grown-up never asks to be alone with a child.
If something feels strange or confusing, tell a grown-up you trust. They will never be upset that you told.
Worked examples
Make a helper map
- Kit draws himself in the middle.
- He draws his family, his teacher, a police officer and a shop worker.
- A name badge helps us spot a helper.
Ask a worker
- In the toy shop, Kit's grown-up waits by the door.
- Kit spots a worker with a name badge and says, "Excuse me, can you help me?"
- They walk to the door together, side by side.
