What Your Kids Need to Know About Personal Safety—And How to Teach It
Episode 35
As homeschooling moms, we teach our kids everything from math facts to gospel principles...
Are we also preparing them for real-life emergencies they might face?
On the More Than Homeschooling Podcast I share a couple of moments that made everything REAL, as in, this kind of thing can happen anytime to my kids and I need to help them be ready. Such as.... the time my son remembered earthquake safety better than I did, and another experience where a young girl was dropped off at class, not realizing it was spring break and didn't know her mom's phone number!
Both were powerful reminders that our kids need to be prepared, not scared—and we can totally teach them how.
This episode will give you practical tools and simple approaches to prepare your children for the unexpected, while building confidence and peace of mind in your home.
