Safety Goals For Young Children
Objetivos de seguridad para niños pequeños
by Michaela Luttman

I decide to look both ways before I cross the street.
Decido mirar a ambos lados antes de cruzar
la calle.

I will communicate with my mom to wear sunscreen while playing outside.
Me comunicaré con mi madre a usar protector solar mientras que al aire libre.

I decide to wear a life jacket every time I am on a boat.
Me decido a llevar un chaleco salvavidas cada vez que estoy en un barco.

I set a goal to wear a helmet on my head every time I ride my bike.
Puse una meta de usar un casco en la cabeza cada vez que me paseo en bicicleta.

I decide to wear my seat belt every time I am in the car.
Decido usar mi cinturón de seguridad cada vez que estoy en el coche.

I set a goal to use a crosswalk while crossing the street.
Puse un objetivo utilizar para paso de peatones al cruzar la calle.

I will communicate how to call 9-1-1 if I am ever in an emergency.
Sabré cómo llamar a 9-1-1 si alguna vez estoy en una emergencia.

I decide to always ride my bike on the sidewalk when the street is busy.
Yo decido montar siempre mi bicicleta en la acera.
