S.A.F.E. – Safety Awareness for Everyone

S.A.F.E..Safety Awareness for Everyone helps young children understand reasons for coming to the hospital and provides an introduction to safety featuring Children's Hospital's safety educator, SAFE-T-SAURUS. Program is designed specially for pre school groups ages 4-6 utilizing play and hands on activitites. It is our hope that through this program, children will gain a familiarity of the hospital, which will help them cope emotionally if, in fact, they make a planned or an unexpected visit.
