S-A-F-E
Lead-in questions
How many of you know someone who has been injured on a playground? What happened?
How often do you think a child is taken to the emergency room because they were hurt on a playground?
Answer: Every 2 ½ minutes a child is taken to the emergency room for playground related injuries in the US.
Set the timer every 2 ½ minutes during this discussion to show the kids how often a child is hurt. Choose a child to go to the designated "hospital" area of the room every time the timer goes off.
Presentation
Because we want you to have fun and be safe when you play outside, we are going to discuss playground safety. There are four different ways to make a playground safe. A helpful way to remember these four areas of playground safety is SAFE.
Display four different flash cards that spell out S-A-F-E. This can be altered or discussed if children do not yet know how to spell or read.
Supervision Point to the S flash card.
S stands for Supervision. Supervision is one of the ways to make a playground safer. Does anyone know what 'supervision' means?
Why is it important that adults watch you play on the playground?
Answer: Adults realize that you are supposed to run, jump, shout, laugh and explore the playground.
But sometimes, other things happen on a playground that need an adult to help.
Can you think of a time when you needed help from an adult on a playground? What happened?
