Children have the right to safety

At the sports weekend, many parents take smaller or larger children with them. If they see how their descendant is rushing on a mountain bike with wooded hillside, they should remember that they were definitely doing something like that. Where else would the wild blood be taken…?

There are, therefore, a few principles that parents should explore before embarking on adventures with their children.

 

How to do it-Use safety aids!

Adults should ensure that the child uses all safety equipment: on roller skates and skateboards, elbow, knee and wrist protectors as well as a helmet. The helmet and the waistcoat on the water is required, Cycling helmet, gloves, reflective tapes and reflectors.

 

Besides buying adult aids, children should check and use them as an example.

The helmet is necessary!

The suspicions that a child with a helmet loses a self-preservation bike do not rely on the truth. They say he does not even protect himself in a car crash. And even you can strangle the tape under your chin. In addition, it is hot and the baby gets sunburn. None of that is true.

The helmet and reflective vest is like a car seat belt. She has already saved life for many cyclists, but it may happen that in some unlikely moments the situation will worsen.

 

Learn to swim!

It is said that children who are just learning to swim are drowning and are therefore deeper. This is not true, and medical statistics speak the opposite. Basics of swimming will help everyone get warm up at least for a while. In addition, the baby will not cry when his head unexpectedly gets under water, for example, in swimming pool games or jumping into the water.

 

Do not delay the floating vest!

In water sports, the child must have a float vest. Get on a raft, canoe, or sail. Falling into the water or even overturning the boat is a shock for an adult, let alone a child. The float vest will help with rescue, especially in the first moments when the “float” is brought to the surface.

 

It is said that under the jeep vest will make it impossible to save. In this one special case, it is true, but without a safety vest, only very experienced water boys attempt to self-preserve in the hopeless situation on a strong cylinder, from which they cannot get other than his underlining at the bottom. But it rarely succeeds.
