Question

Which is NOT one of the ways that children can learn to participate in their own protection? Question 7 options: A) Memorize safety warnings about what you don't want them to do (e.g. don't run in the street, don't touch matches). B) Learn to recognize potential hazards and dangerous activities such as medicines, hot beverages or uncovered outlets. C) Practice emergency procedures to follow in the event of a fire or disaster. D) Acknowledge when children have acted in a safe way (e.g. "That was a safe way to carry the scissors. You pointed the sharp end down.").

Answer 1

The option that is NOT one of the ways that children can learn to participate in their own protection is:

A) Memorize safety warnings about what you don't want them to do (e.g. don't run in the street, don't touch matches).

Encouraging children to memorize safety warnings is not as effective as engaging them in hands-on learning experiences and practical strategies. Children learn best through active engagement, understanding potential hazards, and practicing safe behaviors.
