SIMON THE SAFETY BEAR IN THE SCHOOL PROGRAM

Each year an alarming number of people are involved in accidents, in all types of situations and locations. The saddest of all are those involving children. Evidence suggests that children are often living in a world of play when they are in the traffic environment.

Many studies have been made by various agencies as to the most effective approach to traffic education. It is the general conclusion of all studies that the hazards of the streets are indelibly inscribed in the minds of the young, if such training is given to children in their formative years. Simon in the school Program provides an in-school presentation with a visit from Simon the Safety Bear.

This program is centered towards children ages 3 to 8 years of age (pre-school to grade 3).

Program is 45 minutes in length and operates in the months of November, December, January, February, March and April each year.
